I know this question is not going to be so clear as most similar questions on here are talking about sending headers, also there's a lot of questions similar to but not answering this specifically, also sorry if the answer is extremely obvious.
So I've got an apk that sends X-API-Key in the header PHP conversion of this code is:
$url = 'example.something.org/test.php';
$data = "$some_data";
$cURL = curl_init();
curl_setopt($cURL, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
curl_setopt($cURL, CURLOPT_POST, true);
curl_setopt($cURL, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($cURL, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $data);
curl_setopt($cURL, CURLOPT_HEADER, true);
curl_setopt($cURL, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array("X-API-KEY"=>"FIND_MEEEEEEEE"));
What I want is to collect the X-API-KEY and store it as a variable so that I can then send another request from test.php similar to the one shown, its not an option to run the request directly from the apk as I don't want this data stored client side, I need the X-API-KEY for the request being sent from the server, so technically it is like this apk->my_server->external_server
I have tried using print_r for $_POST and $_SERVER echoed all keys in header() multiple other things that I can't even think of right now as I've tried everything and searched Google as much as possible.
Please link to answer if this has been answered already.
EDIT:
I've also tried using this js code which gives me the exact same headers:
var req = new XMLHttpRequest();
req.open('GET', document.location, false);
req.send(null);
var headers = req.getAllResponseHeaders().toLowerCase();
alert(headers);
Set header as:-
$headers = array(
'Content-type: application/json',
"X-API-KEY"=>"FIND_MEEEEEEEE"
);
curl_setopt($cURL, CURLINFO_HEADER_OUT, true);
curl_setopt($cURL, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $headers);
in your test.php file write this lines:-
foreach (getallheaders() as $name => $value) {
echo "$name: $value\n";
}
Hope it will help you :)
