Add header option so it works with site changes about headereditor HOT 6 CLOSED

This is not very common. You can implement it with custom code.
For example:

for (let a in val) {
	if (val[a].name === 'Cookie') {
		val[a].value += ';myaddedcookie=abc';
		return;
	}
}
// If this request has not Cookie, add it
val.push({
	"name": "Cookie",
	"value": "myaddedcookie=abc"
});

You can use regular expression. Documention: MDN. For example:

val[a].value = val[a].value.replace(/ball=(\w+)/, ''); // will remove ball=[english words], such as ball=words
val[a].value = val[a].value.replace(/ball=(\d+)/, ''); // will remove ball=[numbers], such as ball=12345
val[a].value = val[a].value.replace(/ball=([a-zA-Z0-9]+)/, ''); // will remove ball=[english words or numbers], such as ball=1a2b3qq135

Thanks, that works for me!

On a somewhat related question, do you know of a custom code that is able to remove a specific header value, example: remove value 'ball' from Cookie: ball=1&cat=1 so it then becomes Cookie: cat=1

I messed around with some JS code to do this but wasn't able to get one working since my knowledge of JS is weak

You can use replace function. Example:

for (let a in val) {
	if (val[a].name === 'Cookie') {
		val[a].value = val[a].value.replace('ball=value', '');
		break;
	}
}

Thanks again and also for the link, will look into it.

If I see correctly, the code would work only if the value in ball=value is constant, but what if the value is randomly generated?

Interesting, I'll look more into regular expressions. Thank you!
