+- **modes** - active modes
+- **app_id** - if **app** mode is active, this field contains configured application ID
+- **genesis_hash** - genesis hash of the network to which the light client is connected
+- **network** - network host, version and spec version light client is currently con
+- **latest_block** - latest processed block
+- **latest_synced_block** - the latest processed block in the sync range
+- **sync_depth** - number of blocks before the latest to sync on light client start
+- **partition** - if configured, displays partition which light client distributes to the peer to peer network
+
+### Modes
+
+- **light** - data availability sampling mode, the light client performs random sampling and calculates confidence
+- **app** - light client fetches, verifies, and stores application-related data
+- **partition** - light client fetches configured block partition and publishes it to the DHT

 # WebSocket API
 
 The Avail Light Client WebSocket API allows real-time communication between a client and a server over a persistent connection, enabling push notifications as an alternative to polling. Web socket API can be used on its own or in combination with HTTP API to enable different pull/push use cases.
