KuzzleRequest #

Object representation of a Kuzzle API call, to be used with the entryPoint.execute function.

That object is continuously updated to reflect the current state of the request, during its entire lifecycle.

For more information about this object, refer to its technical documentation.


Response headers #

Network protocol specific headers can be added to the response. If the protocol supports it, these headers are forwarded in the response sent to the client.

To customize the response content, read the RequestResponse documentation.
