             Summary: Proposal: Add API to get the client request UUID directly from a TSHttpTx
                 Key: TS-5030
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TS-5030
             Project: Traffic Server
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: TS API
            Reporter: David Calavera


The new UUID api introduced in https://github.com/apache/trafficserver/pull/736 is great for tracing operations and requests. However, the most useful information for plugin developers, the unique client request id, is not exposed as an api endpoint. People need to understand very well how TrafficServer works internally to generate this value. By not having the API directly exposed, people need to repeat the same code every time they want to generate this unique identifier.

I'd like to add an API enpoint to generate this identifier based in a given http transaction for plugins to use.

This would be the signature:

tsapi const char * TSClientRequestUuidGet(TSHttpTxn txnp);
