Date

The Date general HTTP header contains the date and time at which the message originated.

Warning: Date is listed in the forbidden header names in the fetch spec, so this code will not send the Date header:

fetch('https://httpbin.org/get', {
  'headers': {
    'Date': (new Date()).toUTCString()
  }
})

Header type	Request header, Response header
Forbidden header name	yes
