### Method

# Soup MessageHeaders get_one

#### Declaration [src]

    const char*
    soup_message_headers_get_one (
      SoupMessageHeaders* hdrs,
      const char* name
    )

#### Description [src]

Gets the value of header `name` in `hdrs`.

Use this for headers whose values are not comma-delimited lists, and which therefore can only appear at most once in the headers. For list-valued headers, use `soup_message_headers_get_list()`.

If `hdrs` does erroneously contain multiple copies of the header, it is not defined which one will be returned. (Ideally, it will return whichever one makes libsoup most compatible with other HTTP implementations.)

#### Parameters

`name`

  Type: `const char*`

  Header name.

  The data is owned by the caller of the function.
  The value is a NUL terminated UTF-8 string.

#### Return value

Type: `const char*`

The header’s value or `NULL` if not found.

The data is owned by the instance.
The return value can be `NULL`.
The value is a NUL terminated UTF-8 string.
