The HTTP protocol utilizes numerous headers, some of which are specific to the application while others are well-defined and widely accepted within the technology.
Here’s an example request to http://google.com:
| GET /search?q=code7school+cyber+security&ie=UTF-8 HTTP/1.1 Host: google.com User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/87.0.4280.88 Safari/537.36 Accept: image/avif,image/webp,image/apng,image/*,*/*;q=0.8 Referer: https://code7school.com/ Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate Cookie: cookie1=value1;cookie2=value2 |
