content_type Property

Content type for posts and puts.

Syntax

def get_content_type() -> str: ...
def set_content_type(value: str) -> None: ...

content_type = property(get_content_type, set_content_type)

Default Value

""

Remarks

If this property contains a non-empty string, a Content-Type HTTP request header is added to the request. The purpose of the header is to show the contents of the data during a post or put to the server.

The most common example is posting of HTML form input data. In that case, this property must be set to "application/x-www-form-urlencoded".
