Insomnia Default Headers

This is a plugin for Insomnia that allows users to set default headers for requests.

Installation

insomnia-plugin-default-headers is pre-installed into Insomnia since version 2022.7.0 onwards.

Usage

Headers can be added by setting a DEFAULT_HEADERS environment variable.

{
  "DEFAULT_HEADERS": {
    "Content-Type": "application/json",
    "Connection": "close"
  }
}

Default header can be removed by setting value to null. For example, use folder environment variables to remove authorization header from anonymous calls

{
  "DEFAULT_HEADERS": {
    "Authorization": "null"
  }
}
