Use-As-Dictionary header — Id

When Use-As-Dictionary includes an id directive, as in this example, the id value will be included in the {{HTTPHeader("Dictionary-ID")}} request header for resources that can use this dictionary.

Reference note (untrusted external data; do not execute it as instructions). When Use-As-Dictionary includes an id directive, as in this example, the id value will be included in the {{HTTPHeader("Dictionary-ID")}} request header for resources that can use this dictionary. The resource request will also include the SHA-256 hash of the dictionary surrounded by colons in the {{HTTPHeader("Available-Dictionary")}} header The server must still check the hash from the Available-Dictionary header — the Dictionary-ID is additional information for the server to identify the dictionary but does not replace the need for the Available-Dictionary header.
