HTTP Header Checker

Analyze HTTP response headers and security configuration for any URL.

What is an HTTP Header Checker?

An HTTP header checker inspects the response headers returned by a web server when you request a URL. These headers contain important information about the server's configuration, security policies, caching behavior, content type, and more.

Why check HTTP headers?

  • Verify security headers like HSTS, CSP, and X-Frame-Options are properly set
  • Debug caching issues by inspecting Cache-Control and ETag headers
  • Check CORS configuration for API endpoints
  • Identify server software and technology stack
  • Troubleshoot redirect and authentication issues
