Add custom headers to Ajax when loading data

alesnav

Hello,

I need to add custom headers to Ajax requests when loading data for DataTables, but I don't know if it is possible directly from DataTables.

It is possible to add data to the Ajax petition, but I don't see any option to add custom headers. This is how we included the data:

'ajax': { 'url': url, 'type': 'GET', 'data': function ( data ) { data.token = token; } }

How can we add custom headers to the Ajax call in DataTables?

Using jQuery, it would be:

$.ajax({ type: 'GET', url: url, data: '', beforeSend: function (request) { request.setRequestHeader("token", token); } });

Thanks!

Ah, nice!

You can add 'beforeSend' the same way in DataTables!!! :)

Allan, could you add this to docs?

        'ajax': {
            'url': url,
            'type': 'GET',
            'beforeSend': function (request) {
                request.setRequestHeader("token", token);
            }
        }
