How do I access request headers in a rails API?












0















I'm struggling to access headers sent to my API in Grape. In my test specs I am sending a GET request with an email in a header. I want to extract the email sent in the header as it hits the API and record it in an instance of my Audit model. However I can't access the header here through request.headers, any idea what I can do?

    With grape just use headers instead of request.headers.

  • Yes, this is it, I needed to put it in a before block too. Thanks!
