Can I call curl_setopt with CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER multiple times to set multiple headers?

Following what curl does internally for the request (via the method outlined in this answer to "Php - Debugging Curl") answers the question: No, it is not possible to use the curl_setopt call with CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER. The second call will overwrite the headers of the first call.

Instead the function needs to be called once with all headers:

$headers = array(
    'Content-type: application/xml',
    'Authorization: gfhjui',
);
curl_setopt($curlHandle, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $headers);

Related (but different) questions are:

  • How to send a header using a HTTP request through a curl call? (curl on the commandline)
  • How to get an option previously set with curl_setopt()? (curl PHP extension)

Other type of format :

$headers[] = 'Accept: application/json';
$headers[] = 'Content-Type: application/json';
$headers[] = 'Content-length: 0';

curl_setopt($curlHandle, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $headers);
