Request Header Inspector — See Headers Your Browser Sends

Inspect the HTTP request headers your browser sends. User-Agent, Accept, and more.

The Request Header Inspector shows the headers that your browser sends with each request—User-Agent, Accept, Accept-Language, and others. Developers use it to debug "wrong content type" or "unsupported format" when the server sees different headers than expected, to copy User-Agent for scripting, or to verify CORS or security headers. Often implemented by sending a request to an echo endpoint that returns the received headers.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do headers differ from DevTools?

DevTools shows the request for a specific resource; the inspector may hit an echo URL. Both are valid; use the one that matches your scenario.

Can I change User-Agent?

This tool usually shows your real headers. To send custom headers, use the Request Builder.

What is Accept-Language?

It tells the server which languages the client prefers; used for content negotiation and localization.

Are cookies included?

If the echo URL is same-site, cookies are sent automatically; the inspector shows Cookie if present.

Is my IP or location sent?

Headers may include X-Forwarded-For or similar if behind a proxy; the echo server may log IP for the response.
