says:
For example, setting a 'User-Agent' attribute with no value will remove the User-Agent value set on scenario level.
but when you try to do that and update scenario, you get an error:
Invalid parameter "/1/headers/1/value": cannot be empty. [httpconf.php:389 → CApiWrapper->__call() → CFrontendApiWrapper->callMethod() → CApiWrapper->callMethod() → CFrontendApiWrapper->callClientMethod() → CLocalApiClient->callMethod() → CHttpTest->update() → CHttpTest->validateUpdate() → CApiService::exception() in include/classes/api/services/CHttpTest.php:417]
(added in Aug 2022 - the error happens if you try to add Header "User-Agent" at scenario level.
This is how the original documentation was threaded by real zabbix user)
For the particular case I found a workaround - select "Agent" drop-down as "other ..." and leave "User agent string" field empty. Checked in wireshark that generated HTTP GET does not have "User-Agent" header at all.
One of should be fixed: documentation or ability to specify header with empty value, as currently documented.
Note: with the workaround only 2 headers set, they are:
Host: <FQDN from scenario step> Accept: */*
