Getting the x-nf-request-id
If your test results include an x-nf-request-id, you not only have confirmation that your project is being served by Netlify, but you also have the information you need to provide to Netlify tech support about specific requests that are not what you expect them to be.
Sites on Netlify
When successful, your x-nf-request-id test returns results that look like this:
|====================== get x-nf-request-id =====================
| -------------------- blank if not Netlify ---------------------
| ------------------------ greg-raven.us ------------------------
| ---------------------------- http -----------------------------
< x-nf-request-id: c24b7828-7857-4254-91fa-6648bf22f56c

< x-nf-request-id: 48580baf-d066-4164-aa21-61829fca59cc
|================================================================
The information you are looking for is x-nf-request-id: c24b7828-7857-4254-91fa-6648bf22f56c. The x-nf-request-id part tells you that the file comes from the Netlify system and the c24b7828-7857-4254-91fa-6648bf22f56c part tells you the exact request identifier, which can be helpful to Netlify tech support.
Sites not on Netlify
When unsuccessful, some or all of the results will be missing, and could look like this:
|====================== get x-nf-request-id =====================
| -------------------- blank if not Netlify ---------------------
| ------------------------ greg-raven.us ------------------------
| ---------------------------- http -----------------------------
| ---------------------------- https ----------------------------
