Content Type Declaration in HTTP Header for outbound transmissions

[spistolpete]

Hi everyone,

Does anyone know how I can get a meta tag into an outbound transmission to an external system? We are sending OTM order data through our B2B server to a third party logisitics provider, and our B2B server needs a specific content type declaration in the HTTP header in order to process our transmission.

Thanks,
Pete

Re: Content Type Declaration in HTTP Header for outbound transmissions

Hi Pete,

the apache web server has a module called mod_headers that might help: "This module provides directives to control and modify HTTP request and response headers. Headers can be merged, replaced or removed."

You would probably need to dig a bit into the apache configuration to make sure that the header change is only done for the appropriate communication, but there are plenty of possibilities (and documentation) around for that.

Hope that helps,
Sven
