Liquid header tag

On this page

The header Liquid tag sets HTTP response headers directly from your theme templates. When StoreConnect renders a page, it collects all headers set via this tag and includes them in the HTTP response sent to the browser.

Syntax

```liquid

{% header name: “Header-Name”, value: “header-value” %} ```

Parameter Required Description
name Yes The HTTP header name (e.g. Content-Security-Policy, X-Custom-Header)
value Yes The header value

Where you can use it

The header tag works in all of the following template contexts:

  • Layout templates (layouts/)
  • Page templates (pages/)
  • Snippets (snippets/) — including those rendered via {% render %}
  • Database content blocks (content stored in Salesforce)

Headers set in any of these contexts are merged together into the final HTTP response.

Examples

Set a Content-Security-Policy for one page

```liquid

{% if current_page.identifier == “home” %} {% header name: “Content-Security-Policy”, value: “frame-ancestors ‘self’ example.com;” %} {% endif %} ```

Set a custom header from a layout

```liquid

{% header name: “X-Store-Region”, value: current_store.name %} ```

Set multiple headers

```liquid

{% header name: “X-Frame-Options”, value: “SAMEORIGIN” %} {% header name: “Referrer-Policy”, value: “strict-origin-when-cross-origin” %} ```

When multiple header tags set the same header name, the last value wins.

Notes

  • Some core platform headers (such as Content-Type and Set-Cookie) are controlled by StoreConnect and cannot be overridden with this tag.
  • Do not use this tag to expose sensitive information. Header values are visible to clients and intermediaries.
  • Dynamic values from Liquid variables are supported in both name and value parameters.
