Angular 5 - remove default HTTP headers from request

Question

The problem here is that whenever I make a http post request to the server. This is what I see in my network tab

Accept: application/json, text/plain, */*
Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate, br
Accept-Language: en,en-GB;q=0.9
Authorization: Bearer olxyiByY_efkTH_3WavjtTnm0GclhYws....
Connection: keep-alive
Content-Type: application/json

I want to remove the Accept: application/json, text/plain, /
from the request that I make. It is automatically getting set when I make every request.

This is the how I am setting headers

public jwt() {

  let headers = new HttpHeaders({ 'Authorization': 'Bearer ' + currentUser.access_token,
  'x-mol-lang': 'en', 'Content-Type': 'application/json'});

  return ({ withCredentials: true, headers: headers, reportProgress: true});
}

I am making a service and calling the jwt function for post action.

  _this.http.post(_this.url, body, _this.jwtService.jwt()).subscribe();

The output that i want in my network tab to show is without **Accept: application/json, text/plain, / **

Is there any way I can achieve this action?

Why do you want to do this? It includes `*/*` so it will accept anything, there's no reason for a server to look at that header and reject it with a 406. — Quentin, May 13 '18 at 11:44
for download api the server throws a 500 error because of it. It creates a problem — edrich13, May 13 '18 at 11:56
`return this.http.post(_this.url,body {responseType: 'text'})` — Vikas, May 13 '18 at 13:13
@edrich13 — You should fix the API so it doesn't choke on a perfectly good Accept header. — Quentin, May 13 '18 at 13:33
try changing the HttpInterceptor. export class Interceptor implements HttpInterceptor — Ray Luxembourg, May 13 '18 at 14:25
