Check HTTP header

APPLIES TO: All API Management tiers

Use the check-header policy to enforce that a request has a specified HTTP header. You can optionally check to see if the header has a specific value or one of a range of allowed values. If the check fails, the policy terminates request processing and returns the HTTP status code and error message specified by the policy.

Note

Set the policy's elements and child elements in the order provided in the policy statement. Learn more about how to set or edit API Management policies.

</check-header>
