Below are some commonly used HTTP headers used to resolve the Fluid Topics base URL:

  • X-Forwarded-Proto: added by a proxy to carry the protocol used by the client to reach it (http or https).

  • X-Forwarded-Host: added by a proxy to carry the host requested by the client.

Fluid Topics requires these headers for accurate reconstruction of the base URL accessed by the portal user, regardless of the number of proxies involved.

The Fluid Topics server does not support the Forwarded header due to its underlying components.
