Mutual TLS certificate passthrough

Have just setup TYK gateway and dashboard. Have also configured an example api and mutual tls. This all works fine. The question I cannot find an answer to now is the how I can get the client certificate passed to the upstream api’s in a header of my choosing.

So basically I want to terminate the SSL in TYK, Which is done. But I want to pass the certificate to the upstream api. How can I do this?

Hi,

When you use mutual TLS, it is passed through the TLS layer, rather than the http layer. This means that none of the headers are used

We are however working on including a feature which will allow you to pass this information via the headers.

Hope that helps!

Yes, thank you for your response.
