Adding and retrieving data from a query context

Question

I am trying to connect the api key to the header of the outgoing OperationContext message as follows:

    public static void AddApikeyToHeader(string apikey, IContextChannel channel, string address)
    {
        using (OperationContextScope scope = new OperationContextScope(channel))
        {
            MessageHeader header = MessageHeader.CreateHeader("apikey", address, apikey);
            OperationContext.Current.OutgoingMessageHeaders.Add(header);

        }
    }

but then I have no idea how to get the server side header. I am using the service authorization manager and I am getting the current working context and trying to get the header like this:

    public string GetApiKey(OperationContext operationContext)
    {
        var request = operationContext.RequestContext.RequestMessage;

        var prop = (HttpRequestMessageProperty)request.Properties[HttpRequestMessageProperty.Name];

        return prop.Headers["apikey"];
    }

but there is no apikey header there. Also, when debugging, when I check operationContext, I cannot see the apikey header anywhere. Can anyone see where I'm wrong?

You can add your own title this way:

using (ChannelFactory<IMyServiceChannel> factory = 
       new ChannelFactory<IMyServiceChannel>(new NetTcpBinding()))
      {
       using (IMyServiceChannel proxy = factory.CreateChannel(...))
       {
          using ( OperationContextScope scope = new OperationContextScope(proxy) )
          {
             Guid apiKey = Guid.NewGuid();
             MessageHeader<Guid> mhg = new MessageHeader<Guid>(apiKey);
             MessageHeader untyped = mhg.GetUntypedHeader("apiKey", "ns");
             OperationContext.Current.OutgoingMessageHeaders.Add(untyped);

             proxy.DoOperation(...);
          }
       }                    
    }

And from the service side you can get the header, for example:

Guid apiKey = 
OperationContext.Current.IncomingMessageHeaders.GetHeader<Guid>("apiKey", "ns");
