OP

[@nishanthsingh8745]

As per the documentation and this video, i was able to add a static header in the response. How do we add the dynamic headers which are a part of the request to the response header. For example, we can add dynamic request headers using x-custom-request:$(headers.request) using request transformer plugin. But when the same is configured in response transformer plugin, it gives a static value (string)

Thank you for sharing. I have a question: can we use the "response transformer" plugin to modify the upstream response body based on a condition? For example, if it's a GET request, I modify the body; otherwise, I do nothing. If not, what other plugin could do this? Thanks.
