Creating Custom Headers for the EAI HTTP Transport Service

Custom headers can be created when sending a request through the EAI HTTP Transport service using a script or a workflow.

To create custom headers for the EAI HTTP Transport service

• Create a new input property in the input to the HTTP transport.

  The name of the property must have a prefix of HDR. or HDR_ followed by the name of the custom header, for example:

  httpIn.SetProperty("HDR.CustomHttpHeader","MyValue");
  httpSvc.InvokeMethod("SendReceive", httpIn, httpOut);
  

A custom HTTP header with a name of "CustomHttpHeader" and a value of "MyValue" is the result.

Note: The HDR_ prefix can be useful in workflows for avoiding interference with the period (.) notation used in creating property sets.
