To add multiples params or headers you can do the following   constructor private  http  HttpClient              const url      environment APP API  api request    let headers   new HttpHeaders   set  header1   hvalue1      create header object headers   headers append  header2   hvalue2      add a new header  creating a new object headers   headers append  header3   hvalue3      add another header  let params   new HttpParams   set  param1   value1      create params object params   params append  param2   value2      add a new param  creating a new object params   params append  param3   value3      add another param   return this  http get lt any   gt  url    headers  headers  params  params

First  you need to add HttpHeaders with HttpClient import   HttpClient HttpHeaders    from   angular common http    your constructor should be like this  constructor private http  HttpClient       then you can use like this    let header   new HttpHeaders    quot Authorization quot    quot Bearer  quot  token        const requestOptions      headers  header                                                                                                                                                                                    return this http get lt any gt  url  requestOptions           toPromise            then data  gt                                  return data

In the manual  https   angular io guide http  I read  The HttpHeaders class is immutable  so every set   returns a new instance and applies the changes   The following code works for me with angular-4     return this http get url   headers  new HttpHeaders   set  UserEmail   email

I was with Angular 8 and the only thing which worked for me was this     getCustomHeaders    HttpHeaders       const headers   new HttpHeaders          set  Content-Type    application json          set  Api-Key    xxx        return headers

The instances of the new HttpHeader class are immutable objects  Invoking class methods will return a new instance as result  So basically  you need to do the following   let headers   new HttpHeaders    headers   headers set  Content-Type    application json  charset utf-8      or  const headers   new HttpHeaders   Content-Type   application json  charset utf-8       Update  adding multiple headers  let headers   new HttpHeaders    headers   headers set  h1    v1   set  h2   v2      or  const headers   new HttpHeaders   h1   v1   h2   v2       Update  accept object map for HttpClient headers  amp  params  Since 5 0 0-beta 6 is now possible to skip the creation of a HttpHeaders object an directly pass an object map as argument  So now its possible to do the following   http get  someurl       headers    header1   value1   header2   value2

I was struggling with this as well  I used an interceptor  it captures the response headers  then clone the headers since headers are immutable objects  and then sends the modified headers  https   angular io guide http intercepting-requests-and-responses

I struggled with this for a long time  I am using Angular 6 and I found that  let headers   new HttpHeaders    headers   headers append  key    value      did not work  But what did work was  let headers   new HttpHeaders   append  key    value      did  which makes sense when you realize they are immutable  So having created a header you can t add to it  I haven t tried it  but I suspect  let headers   new HttpHeaders    let headers1   headers append  key    value      would work too
