HTTP delivery handoff review

Review HTTP Content-Type and charset

A response's media type, charset, and filename can disagree. Compare synthetic cases and save a note before handing off a file or API response.

Review a response header

HTTP Content-Type review

Only synthetic headers are used. Nothing is fetched, sent, or saved externally.

Before delivery

  • Align the media type with the bytes the receiver will get.
  • Use a charset for text where the receiving contract needs it.
  • Do not infer safety from a filename extension alone.
