AngularJS $resource not sending X-Requested-With

Question

I\'m using angular 1.1.5 and I\'m using a $resource to make a XHR to a REST service but it seems like the the $resource isn\'t appending the header as X-Requested-With as XM

Answer 1

I had the same issue and I solved it using:

myApp.config(['$httpProvider', function($httpProvider) {
    $httpProvider.defaults.headers.common['X-Requested-With'] = 'XMLHttpRequest';
}]);

Also you can set the header to accept application/json:

$http({
  method: 'GET',
  url: '/someUrl',
  headers: { Accept: 'application/json' }
})
