Hi, I am using cloudflare worker as a proxy to multiple REST API's. However I do not want that the REST API's get the users real IP from the

cf-connecting-ip

header. I enabled

Remove visitor IP headers

in the transform rules but the REST API servers still got the

cf-connecting-ip

header in the request. Then I made a new modify request header rule like attached images shows but the REST API servers still got the

cf-connecting-ip

header. What am I doing wrong?

If you remove the

X-Real-IP

header from the incoming request, the Workers subrequest won't have the user's IP in

CF-Connecting-IP

.

js

const requestHeaders = new Headers(request.headers)

requestHeaders.delete('X-Real-IP')

return fetch(request, {
  headers: requestHeaders
})

🤔 i did this

Did you remove the X-Real-IP header?

then i actually set the cf-connecting-ip header with trash data

Could you share the code thats sending the request?

and in which part are you removing the headers?
