Shiny for Python HTTP_X_SP_USERID

[kramerrs]

I have been up and running with Shiny for Python with ShinyProxy for a while. It mostly just works. This is the first issue I have encountered. The Shiny module in Shiny for Python is a bit different than R/Shiny and doesn't appear to have a request item in the session variable so session$request$HTTP_X_SP_USERID doesn't work. Are there any ideas here?

I'm not using the Python version of Shiny but you may have a look at this sample
Display Headers
that allow to display http headers from current connection.

So may be use session.http_conn.headers['HTTP_X_SP_USERID'] ?

I ended up doing something like that, the catch is that for whatever reason, the label isn't the same ('x-sp-userid'). I'm not sure why.
