Full summary

Header-Editor is an extension that will allow you to create and use arbitrary HTTP headers in Chrome.

The following permissions are needed for Header-Editor to run:

  • webRequest - Used to access the requests being sent out.
  • webRequestBlocking - So that headers are modified before being sent.
  • <all_urls> - All URLs are asked for since the extension cannot know ahead of time where it will be needed.

Note: Response headers do not appear in the Network Inspector, however they are supplied to your code. For more details, see:

Modify the request, include request headers, response headers, redirect requests, and cancel requests.
