How to add a "Authorization=Bearer" header with Indy in Delphi?

22,277

Just found the problem. I added the wrong separator between the "Authorization" and "Bearer" words.

Wrong:

FIdHTTP.Request.CustomHeaders.FoldLines := False;
FIdHTTP.Request.CustomHeaders.Add('Authorization=Bearer ' + txtToken.Text);

Correct:

FIdHTTP.Request.CustomHeaders.FoldLines := False;
FIdHTTP.Request.CustomHeaders.Add('Authorization:Bearer ' + txtToken.Text);

After replacing the '=' by ':', I received the expected response, like the one received by POSTMAN.

    I'm trying to do a POST request using an access_token, and it works fine using POSTMAN, but when I try to do the same request on Delphi, I can't find a way to add the "Authorization=Bearer eyxxxxxx..." to the Request header, as POSTMAN does.

    POSTMAN Request (working well):

    POST /somepath HTTP/1.1
    Host: someurl.com.br
    Authorization: Bearer eyJhbGciOiJSUzI1NiJ9.....
    Content-Type: application/json

    (body content ommited)

    Indy Request generated by Delphi, captured by HTTP Analyzer (always returning 401 Forbidden error, because the absence of "Authorization=Bearer" part):

    POST /somepath HTTP/1.1
    Host: someurl.com.br
    Content-Type: application/json

    (body content ommited)

    I've tried to add the header using the code below, but the header part with the "Authorization=Bearer eyxxxxxx..." isn't generated on Request, returning the 401 Forbidden error.

    FIdHTTP.Request.CustomHeaders.FoldLines := False;
    FIdHTTP.Request.CustomHeaders.Add('Authorization=Bearer ' + txtToken.Text);
