Custom HTTP Header

Custom HTTP Header

You can add one or more custom HTTP headers to a SOAP response. Use the custom HTTP headers to pass additional information such as authentication details or location of the Platform for Privacy Preferences (P3P) policy reference file.
To add a custom HTTP header to a SOAP response, perform the following tasks:
  1. Create a configuration file in the following directory and name it as
    ssahttp.xml
    :
    • On Windows:
      <MDM Registry Edition Installation Directory>\bin
    • On UNIX:
      <MDM Registry Edition Installation Directory>/bin
  2. Add the following entries to the
    ssahttp.xml
    file:
    <httpProtocol> <customHeaders> <add name="<Header Name>" value="<Header Value>"/> </customHeaders> </httpProtocol>
  3. Replace the following entries with appropriate values:
    Header Name
    Name of the header
    Header Value
    Information that you want to add to the response.
    For example:
    <httpProtocol> <customHeaders> <add name="X-Custom-Header" value="Passed"/> </customHeaders> </httpProtocol>
  4. Save the file and close it.
A running server rereads the configuration file by using the following flush command and adds the custom HTTP header to the response message:
  • On Windows:
    %SSABIN%\ssashut -h%SA_XMHOST% -f
  • On UNIX:
    $SSABIN/ssashut -h$SA_XMHOST -f
An example response is as follows:
HTTP/1.1 200 OK Date: Fri, 31 Jan 2014 03:28:54 GMT User-Agent: Informatica-IR/9.5.4 X-Custom-Header: Passed Content-Length: 0
