Add a Request Header to a REST Request

See more REST Examples

Demonstrates Rest.AddHeader, which adds an HTTP request header field. The 1st argument is the field name and the 2nd is the value. Adding a header whose name already exists replaces the previous value.

<?php

use Chilkat2\Rest;

$rest = new Rest();

// Connect to the REST server.  The 3rd argument enables TLS (use true for HTTPS on port 443),
// and the 4th enables automatic reconnection if the connection is dropped between requests.
$bTls = true;
$bAutoReconnect = true;
try {
    $rest->Connect('example.com', 443, $bTls, $bAutoReconnect);

    // Add request header fields.  The 1st argument is the field name and the 2nd is the value.
    // Adding a header with a name that already exists replaces the previous value.
    $rest->AddHeader('Accept', 'application/json');
    $rest->AddHeader('X-Custom-Header', 'example-value');

    $responseText = $rest->FullRequestNoBody('GET', '/api/data');
} catch (\Chilkat2\Exception $e) {
    echo $e->getMessage(), "\n";
    exit;
}

echo $responseText, "\n";
