R: Parse response headers

parse_headers {curl} | R Documentation

## Parse response headers

### Description

Parse response header data as returned by curl_fetch If the request has followed redirects, the data can contain multiple sets of headers. Therefore when multiple = TRUE, the function returns a list with the response headers for each request. By default it only returns the headers of the final request.

### Usage

    parse_headers(txt, multiple = FALSE)

### Arguments

`txt` | raw or character vector with the header data
`multiple` | parse multiple sets of headers separated by a blank line. See details.

### Examples

    req <- curl_fetch_memory("https://httpbin.org/redirect/3")
    parse_headers(req$headers)
    parse_headers(req$headers, multiple = TRUE)
