Headers
InfluxDB HTTP API endpoints use standard HTTP request and response headers.
The following table shows common headers used by many InfluxDB 3 Clustered
API endpoints.
Some endpoints use additional headers specific to their function — for example,
write endpoints accept Content-Encoding to indicate that line protocol
is compressed in the request body.
| Header | Value type | Description |
|---|---|---|
Accept | string | The content type that the client can understand. |
Authorization | string | The authorization scheme and credential. |
Content-Length | integer | The size of the entity-body, in bytes. |
Content-Type | string | The format of the data in the request body. |
