Create Custom HTTP Header Insertion Entries

1. If there are no upstream devices already decrypting HTTPS traffic, configure SSL Forward Proxy.

   1. Add a custom URL category for the SaaS application you are managing (ObjectsCustom ObjectsURL Category).
   2. Specify a Name for the category.
   3. Add the domains specific to the SaaS application you are managing.
   4. Create a Decryption Policy Rule and, as you follow this procedure, configure the following:

      • In the Service/URL Category tab, Add the URL Category that you created in the previous step.
      • In the Options tab, make sure the Action is set to Decrypt and that the Type is set to SSL Forward Proxy.
2. Edit or create a URL Filtering profile.
3. Select HTTP Header Insertion in the URL Filtering Profile dialog.
4. Add an entry.

   1. Specify a Name for this entry.
   2. Select Custom as the Type.
   3. Add domains to the Domains list.

      You can add up to 50 domains and each domain name can have up to 256 characters; wildcards are supported (for example, *.example.com).

      HTTP header insertion occurs when a domain in this list matches the domain in the Host header of the HTTP request.
   4. Add headers to the Headers list.

      You can add up to 5 headers, and each header can have up to 100 characters but cannot contain any spaces.
   5. For each header, enter a Value.

      Each header value can have up to 16K characters.
   6. (Optional) Log insertion activity for the headers.
   7. Click OK to save your changes.
5. Add or edit a Security policy rule (PoliciesSecurity) that allows users to access the SaaS application for which you are configuring this header insertion rule.

   1. Choose the URL Filtering profile (ActionsURL Filtering) that you edited or created in Step 2.
   2. Click OK to save and then Commit your changes.
6. Verify that access to the SaaS application is working in the way you expect. From an endpoint that is connected to your network:

   1. Try to access an account or content that you expect to be able to access. If you cannot access the SaaS account or content, then the configuration is not working.
   2. Try to access an account or content that you expect will be blocked. If you can access the SaaS account or content, then the configuration is not working.
   3. If both of the previous steps work as expected, then you can View Logs (if you configured logging in step 4.6) and you should see the recorded HTTP header insertion activity.
