Discover how to set up custom headers in Xano API responses, boosting your app's performance and security. Follow easy steps to optimize your configuration.
Setting up custom headers for Xano API responses can really boost your API's capabilities, security, and the ability to meet client needs. Xano offers a versatile space for handling HTTP headers, so you can tailor data transmission and reception. This guide covers the ins and outs of adding, tweaking, and managing these custom headers. Expect to explore Xano's interface, use available tools, and grasp best practices to enhance both performance and security.
Alright, first things first. Head over to the Xano login page, pop in your credentials, and hit that "Login" button. Easy peasy.
Once you're in, find the "API" section. Click on it, and then pick the endpoint where you want to set up those custom headers.
Click on the endpoint to open up its configuration page. This is where all the magic happens. You can tweak various settings and options for your API endpoint here.
In the configuration page, look for the "Response" tab and click on it. This is where you can set up the response settings, including those headers we're talking about.
In the "Response" tab, you'll see an option to add headers. Click on the "Add Header" button. Simple, right?
Now, enter the name and value of your custom header. For example:
X-Custom-HeaderCustomValueAfter you've added the custom header, don't forget to click on the "Save" button to lock in your changes.
Time to test it out! Use tools like Postman or curl to make a request to your endpoint and check the response headers. Here's a quick curl command for you:
curl -i https://your-xano-api-endpoint.com
Look for your custom header in the response to make sure it's there.
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
X-Custom-Header: CustomValue
...
Keep an eye on your configuration and update the custom headers whenever necessary. Each time you make changes, remember to save and test the endpoint again. You got this!
