Manipulate Header Request Parameter in Extension

Jan | Last updated: Mar 27, 2017 04:09PM UTC

Hi, I want to build up a automatic test system for a json api. My plan is as follows: Initially I get a fresh login token. Then i get into the proxy (processProxyMessage) and to replace the token with my freshly acquired login token. My problem is that I cannot update the content of my request. The token just doesnt change. Pseudocode: public void processProxyMessage(boolean messageIsRequest, IInterceptedProxyMessage message) { IRequestInfo request= helpers.analyzeRequest(message.getMessageInfo()); String user_1_Token=getNewLoginToken(message); List<String> headers= request.getHeaders(); for (String header : headers) { if (header.startsWith("Auth")) { previous_auth_header=header; } } headers.remove(previous_auth_header); headers.add("Authorization: Bearer "+user_1_Token); Maybe the manipulate of the array does not really effect the forwarded request, but I don't know how to do it correcty. Any ideas?
