+# Adding custom header mapper in Kafka
+
+## Problem Statement
+
+I have a Kafka producer application that sets some headers, but they are missing in the consumer application. Why is that?
+
+## Solution
+
+Under normal circumstances, this should be fine.
+
+Imagine, you have the following producer.
+
+```
+@Bean
+public Supplier<Message<String>> supply() {
+    return () -> MessageBuilder.withPayload("foo").setHeader("foo", "bar").build();
+}
+```
+
+On the consumer side, you should still see the header "foo", and the following should not give you any issues.
+
+```
+@Bean
+public Consumer<Message<String>> consume() {
+    return s -> {
+        final String foo = (String)s.getHeaders().get("foo");
+        System.out.println(foo);
+    };
+}
+```
+
+If you provide a https://docs.spring.io/spring-cloud-stream-binder-kafka/docs/3.1.3/reference/html/spring-cloud-stream-binder-kafka.html#_kafka_binder_properties[custom header mapper] in the application, then this won't work.
+Let's say you have an empty `KafkaHeaderMapper` in the application.
+
+```
+@Bean
+public KafkaHeaderMapper kafkaBinderHeaderMapper() {
+    return new KafkaHeaderMapper() {
+        @Override
+        public void fromHeaders(MessageHeaders headers, Headers target) {
+
+        }
+
+        @Override
+        public void toHeaders(Headers source, Map<String, Object> target) {
+
+        }
+    };
+}
+```
+
+If that is your implementation, then you will miss the `foo` header on the consumer.
+Chances are that, you may have some logic inside those `KafkaHeaderMapper` methods.
+You need the following to populate the `foo` header.
+
+```
+@Bean
+public KafkaHeaderMapper kafkaBinderHeaderMapper() {
+    return new KafkaHeaderMapper() {
+        @Override
+        public void fromHeaders(MessageHeaders headers, Headers target) {
+            final String foo = (String) headers.get("foo");
+            target.add("foo", foo.getBytes());
+        }
+
+        @Override
+        public void toHeaders(Headers source, Map<String, Object> target) {
+            final Header foo = source.lastHeader("foo");
+			target.put("foo", new String(foo.value()));
+        }
+    }
+```
+
+That will properly populate the `foo` header from the producer to consumer.
+
+## Special note on the id header
+
+In Spring Cloud Stream, the `id` header is a special header, but some applications may want to have special custom id headers - something like `custom-id` or `ID` or `Id`.
+The first one (`custom-id`) will propagate without any custom header mapper from producer to consumer.
+However, if you produce with a variant of the framework reserved `id` header - such as `ID`, `Id`, `iD` etc. then you will run into issues with the internals of the framework.
+See this StackOverflow thread fore more context on this use case: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/68412600/change-the-behaviour-in-spring-cloud-stream-make-header-matcher-case-sensitive
+In that case, you must use a custom `KafkaHeaderMapper` to map the case-sensitive id header.
+For example, let's say you have the following producer.
+
+```
+@Bean
+public Supplier<Message<String>> supply() {
+    return () -> MessageBuilder.withPayload("foo").setHeader("Id", "my-id").build();
+}
+```
+
+The header `Id` above will be gone from the consuming side as it clashes with the framework `id` header.
+You can provide a custom `KafkaHeaderMapper` to solve this issue.
+
+```
+@Bean
+public KafkaHeaderMapper kafkaBinderHeaderMapper1() {
+    return new KafkaHeaderMapper() {
+        @Override
+        public void fromHeaders(MessageHeaders headers, Headers target) {
+            final String myId = (String) headers.get("Id");
+			target.add("Id", myId.getBytes());
+        }
+
+        @Override
+        public void toHeaders(Headers source, Map<String, Object> target) {
+            final Header Id = source.lastHeader("Id");
+			target.put("Id", new String(Id.value()));
+        }
+    };
+}
+```
+
+By doing this, both `id` and `Id` headers will be available from the producer to the consumer side.
