Add Request Headers
Ambassador Edge Stack can add a dictionary of HTTP headers that can be added to each request that is passed to a service.
The add_request_headers
attribute
The add_request_headers
attribute is a dictionary of header
: value
pairs. The value
can be a string
, bool
or object
. When it is an object
, the object should have a value
property, which is the actual header value, and the remaining attributes are additional envoy properties.
Envoy dynamic values %DOWNSTREAM_REMOTE_ADDRESS_WITHOUT_PORT%
and %PROTOCOL%
are supported, in addition to static values.
A Basic Example

will add the protocol, client IP, and a static header to /backend/
.
