Get Header AUTHORIZATION value

[s.alpaslan]

Hi @Teodor ,

I have prepared an API in Wappler and I am sending a query to this API with an ‘AUTHORIZATION’ header. My goal is to send the token information within the ‘AUTHORIZATION’ header. I am doing this with Postman and I can see that the information is present in the header. However, when I try to retrieve the ‘AUTHORIZATION’ value from the header using ‘$_SERVER.HTTP_AUTHORIZATION’, the returned value is null. Do you have any idea about this issue? Or is there any other method to read the value from the header?

What is the server you are using (NodeJS, PHP Apache or Nginx)?

apache - Authorization header missing in PHP POST request - Stack Overflow

Yes @patrick , I have read this article before, but I didn’t make any corrections because I was worried that a Wappler update that affects htaccess would cause the issue to recur. Also, I noticed something while searching the internet, which was that if I chose a different word instead of ‘authorization’, I could see it in $_SERVER. Therefore, I added a prefix to the word ‘authorization’ and I can read the data I send in this way.

However, to solve the problem permanently, I think it may be necessary to include a solution similar to what was shown on Stack Overflow in Wappler

Server Type : PHP Apache

You can edit the .htaccess, Wappler will only update the part bewteen ## Wappler routing and ## End Wappler routing and not touch any additional rules you add.

hi Patrick
i have the same problem here
but,what exactly i have to edit in htaccess file to solve it ?

[patrick]

To keep the authorization header add the following to the htaccess.

RewriteCond %{HTTP:Authorization} ^(.*)
RewriteRule .* - [e=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%1]
