What is request.META in Django?

Question

I read a lot of articles about request.META but I didn't understand anything about it and what it does. Can anyone explain it?

Answer 1

request.META contains all the metadata of the HTTP request (the HTTP headers) that is coming to your Django server, it can contain the user agent, ip address, content type, and so on.

Please read the official docs before asking for something in here: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/4.0/ref/request-response/#django.http.HttpRequest.META
