# p4 istat

Check for integrations needed for stream files, the stream spec, or both.

## Syntax

    p4 [g-opts] istat [[-As | -Af] [-a | -r ] [-c | -C] -s] stream

Syntax and naming conventions

## Description

Check for integrations that are needed with respect to the parent stream.

This command is primarily for P4 Server applications, such as P4V, the P4 Visual Client (P4V), to display the status in a user-friendly format.

Pending integrations are shown only if they are warranted by the stream's type and its fromParent or toParent options. (See p4 stream for the Options: field.)

By default, p4 istat reports the status of integration from the stream to its parent. For the status from the parent to the stream, use the -r option.

In a multi-server environment, this command is run directly against an edge server. It is not forwarded to the commit server.

To limit the report to the status of files only or the stream spec only, use the -Af or -As option. However, if the stream's cached integration status with respect to its parent is stale because newer changes have been submitted or the stream's branch view has changed, using -Af or -As updates the cache and shows the status for both files and the stream spec.

## Options

Option | Description
--- | ---
`-a` | Check for all integrations, to and from the parent stream
`-c` | Clear cached information before checking integration history. Intended for diagnostic use.
`-C` | Like -c but also clears the stream's record of the highest merged changelist.
`-r` | Check for integrations required from the parent stream.
`-s` | Display the status of a stream and generate cache data without executing database queries.
-Af | Report integration status for stream files only.
-As | Report integration status for the stream spec only.
`g-opts` | See Global options.
