Question
Which curl option is used to set an HTTP header to a specific value?
Solution
The curl option used to set an HTTP header to a specific value is -H or --header.
Here is how you can use it:
- Open your terminal or command prompt.
- Type the curl command followed by the
-Hor--headeroption. - After the
-Hor--headeroption, type the HTTP header and its value in quotes.
For example, if you want to set the "Content-Type" header to "application/json", you would use the following command:
curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" http://example.com
This command sends a request to http://example.com with an HTTP header where "Content-Type" is "application/json".
