    HI

    where do you intend to read the header? Is it in a mapping rule or some other place?

    Hi

    there are multiple points
     
    Client --- PointA->   Reverse Proxy (point B) --> Backend (point C)

    point A -> you can read through web browser trace (but you won't see how RP transforms it)
    point B -> you need to enable pdweb.debug( or pdweb/pdweb.snoop) https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/enabling-debug-and-snoop-trace-web-gateway-appliance

    This might help you get started. There are a bunch of free courses if you search for ISAM. I would recommending going through them for a better understanding of ISVA (aka ISAM, aka TAM)
