Hi @heshanthenura, welcome to the Vercel Community!

Thanks for posting your question here. Could you please share a code snippet of where you are trying to access the header?

Also, it'd be helpful to add context about the tech stack and other details about your project to help community members suggest solutions.

im using Flask

Thanks @heshanthenura.

Could you also share the code that makes the get request? So we can confirm if the headers are being sent correctly.

Also, can you confirm if the headers are received when you run the application locally?

I use insomnia to send request, when run locally I can see the request headers

this is how i do when i hosted

Connection: close

it got all except authorization header

Hi @heshanthenura, I tried recreating the python example in http server and it works for me

1
from http.server import BaseHTTPRequestHandler
2

3
class handler(BaseHTTPRequestHandler):
4

5
    def do_GET(self):
6
        authheader = self.headers.get('Authorization')
7
        print('Auth header is: ' + str(authheader))
8
        self.send_response(200)
9
        self.send_header('Content-type', 'text/plain')
10
        self.end_headers()
11
        response_message = 'Hi at ' + self.path + ' , world!'
12
        self.wfile.write(response_message.encode('utf-8'))

See the outcome below:

If you need more help, please share your public repo or a minimal reproducible example. That will let us all work together from the same code to figure out what’s going wrong.

hellow, you checked it?

Hi @heshanthenura, sorry for the delayed reply. But, I wasn't able to recreate this issue on my repository you shared. I could see the Authorization header coming through in Vercel logs:

This is the code that I deployed to Vercel:

I hope this helps.

Thank you for your time, I'll check and tell you

in your insomnia look its bad request 404

for "/" url path it work. kind of weird

Hi @heshanthenura, yes, it's a 400 BAD Request because I don't have a valid token, which your application expects.

What's important to note is that the Authorization header value came through to the application code (visible in the logs).

I hope this was helpful.
