Perfect for debugging, testing APIs, verifying proxy configurations, and understanding what information your browser sends to websites.

What Are HTTP Headers?

HTTP headers are metadata fields sent with every web request and response.

Why View HTTP Request Headers?

  • Debug API Issues: Verify authentication tokens, content types, and custom headers
  • Check Proxy Configuration: See if proxy servers are modifying your requests
  • Verify User Agent: Confirm what browser and device information you're sending
  • Test Cookie Transmission: Ensure cookies are being sent correctly
  • Troubleshoot CORS: Identify cross-origin request issues
  • Security Analysis: See what information your browser exposes

What You're Looking At

This shows the exact headers your browser sent on this request — including proxy/CDN headers like X-Forwarded-For if you're behind one. It's the same data a server-side script would see, useful for debugging why a server is behaving differently than expected for your connection.

Custom headers typically start with "X-" by convention, though modern standards prefer using standard headers or defining new ones properly. View these headers to verify they're being sent correctly by your application.
