chrome extension: refuse header “date” in ajax request

Question

I have a javascript code to be used for api (ajax) and I need to send header \"date\" to api-server (required header), but chrome tells me \'refused to set unsafe header \"D

Answer 1

You can't. Since you are sending a XHR request it MUST be terminated according to the standard when you set a whole list of prohibited headers:

You'll need to proxy through your originating url or some other work around.
