Request Headers (including CORS) Modifier

👨🏻‍💻 This Extension is intended for developers and it modifies Request Headers, either through the extension’s main icon or via an exposed API. The API can be accessed from the console or sideloaded scripts (such as Tampermonkey), making it ideal for automated workflows.

💻 The API includes enable() and disable() methods for toggling header modifications directly from the global namespace. You can also add, remove and clear either hostnames or headers, and the passed data can be strings, arrays, objects (for the headers) or arrays of objects. Methods include addHostname, addHostnames, removeHostname, removeHostnames, clearHostnames, addHeader, addHeaders, removeHeader, removeHeaders, clearHeaders. All API methods return a Promise that resolves to a boolean indicating success (true) or failure (false).

👉 API Usage:

The extension exposes a global API object window.requestHeaderModifier that allows you to control its functionality programmatically from your browser's developer console, a website's script (if allowed by CSP), or user script managers like Tampermonkey. All API methods return a Promise that resolves to a boolean indicating success (true) or failure (false).

📖 enable

window.requestHeaderModifier.enable(); // Enables the header modification functionality. This will apply the currently saved rules. Returns true on success
