headerFilter

Removes message headers matching a list of patterns.

Can be used in

proxy, serviceProxy, soapProxy, transport

Syntax

				<headerFilter>
					[<include>pattern</include> | <exclude>pattern</exclude>]...
				</headerFilter>
			

Sample

In the example, only headers starting with Content or the Location header will be kept; all others will be removed from requests and responses.

				<serviceProxy port="80">
					<headerFilter>
						<include>Content.*<include>
						<include>Location<include>
						<exclude>.*<exclude>
					</headerFilter>
					<target host="www.membrane-soa.org" />
				</serviceProxy>
			

Child Elements

The first matching child element will be acted upon by the filter.

Flow

This interceptor is by default applied to both requests and responses. By wrapping it in an <request>...</request> (or <response>...</response>) element, you can select to apply it only to requests (or only to responses). See request and response.
