+== NAME
+
+nng_http_req_get_header - return HTTP request header
+
+== SYNOPSIS
+
+[source, c]
+-----------
+#include <nng/nng.h>
+#include <nng/supplemental/http/http.h>
+
+const char *nng_http_req_get_header(nng_http_req *req, const char *key);
+-----------
+
+== DESCRIPTION
+
+The `nng_http_req_get_header()` looks for an HTTP header _key_ in
+the request _req_, and returns the associated value if found,
+or `NULL` if not found.
+
+The value of _key_ is case insensitive, and should not include the final
+colon in an HTTP header. For example, specifying `Host` or `hOSt` are
+equivalent, whereas the value `Host:` will not find anything.
+
+
+== RETURN VALUES
+
+HTTP header value for _key_, if it exists, or NULL otherwise.
+
+== ERRORS
+
+None.
