Correlation ID

Trace your API requests with a client-generated correlation ID.


The Wise API supports an optional correlation ID header for basic client-side tracing.

  • If provided: It will echo back the correlation ID in the response header
  • If not provided: No correlation ID returned in the header response
Important:

This is a simple echo. Wise does not log or store this value, all tracking must be done on your side. Do not share PII data.
