Request and Response Headers

HTTP headers let the client and the server pass additional information with HTTP requests or responses. An HTTP header consists of a case-insensitive name and header value. The colon (:) separates the name and the value of the header.

Request Headers

When you send HTTP requests to the REST API, specify the following header parameters. All headers are required except the Content-Type header, which is required only if you specify a request body.
