Expose X-Request-Id header in downstream responses

Open bgagnon opened this issue 5 years ago • 2 comments

This is the issue described in envoyproxy/envoy#5828. The simple solution is to set always_set_request_id_in_response: true on the HttpConnectionManager filter, but I think this is only available in xDS API v3 (see #1898).

This may not be desirable in all installations of Contour and could be configurable at various levels:

  • globally, via Contour config
  • locally, via HTTPProxy

Conceptually, I'd say in belongs in the same API vicinity as HeadersPolicy.
