Adding and Replacing HTTP/S Headers in Scanner

This is only possible for requests passing thru proxy but not when conducting automated scanning. Thanks!!

When you send an item for scanning, Burp scans the full request you have sent. So if you want to modify the contents of the request that gets scanned, you just need to do this before you send it. If you want to make systematic changes to scan requests as they are made, you could also write a quick Burp extension to do this.

There are a few extensions that allow this, including Add Customer Header, which is the simplest options.
