What seems like a simple thing to do is causing me errors
I have added a custom header to my post to webapi aspnetcore 2.1 endpoint, but when the header is added to the request I get this in postman
Could not get any response
There was an error connecting to http://localhost:3481/api/account/register.
when I remove the header it works as expected.
the custom header is CorrelationId this is the post
POST //api/account/register HTTP/1.1
Host: localhost:3481
Content-Type: application/json
CorrelationId: 0bdf0a56-fe94-479c-a6db-4b93ad81ad6c
Cache-Control: no-cache
Postman-Token: 7324c922-2911-4ac4-9ede-6401199f4f87
{
"firstName": "dev 23",
"lastName": "dev",
"username": "devuser23",
"email": "devuser23@dev.com",
"phoneNumber": "6468842757",
"password": "!Password1",
"confirmPassword": "!Password1",
"OneSignalUserId":"teststring",
"PushToken":"anotherteststring",
"Roles":["Customer"]
}
Im not sure what the problem is with the header that it.
I have checked logs and app insights which don't even show the request being made or throw any exceptions happened.
EDIT I went back and looked entry box for the value in postman and it did have a return on it, which caused the extra line. Below is what it looks like once I removed the space.
POST //api/account/register HTTP/1.1
Host: localhost:3481
Content-Type: application/json
TableTopCorrelationId: 0bdf0a56-fe94-479c-a6db-4b93ad81ad6c

}
it works now thanks.
The extra return between your CorrelationId header and the Cache-Control header is causing the request to be mangled. There may only be a single line feed between headers in a request.
