ASM Support ID in HTTP Header

I have been trying to get an iRule to add into a HTTP header the support ID however for some reason in 11.6.0 HF4 I cannot get this to work. Reading other threads I would expect the following to work. The irule is as follows:

when HTTP_REQUEST_RELEASE {
    HTTP::header insert X-ASM-SUPPORT-ID [ASM::support_id]
}

When I try and save the iRule it errors with: 01070151:3: Rule [/dmz/irule_asm_supportid] error: /dmz/irule_asm_supportid:2: error: [command is not valid in current event context (HTTP_REQUEST_RELEASE)][ASM::support_id]

Has anyone got any ideas?

    James,

     

    HTTP_REQUEST_RELEASE is not a valid Event for the command. See ASM__support_id

     

    Valid events are ASM_REQUEST_DONE,ASM_REQUEST_VIOLATION,ASM_RESPONSE_VIOLATION

     

    Hope this helps,

    I have been working on this again recently as I had previously stopped working on it and found that the way I could get this working was to use the following iRule.

    when HTTP_REQUEST_RELEASE {
     check if we have collected the support id ok and if so add the HTTP header
    if {[info exists x_asm_support_id]} {
        HTTP::header insert X-ASM-SUPPORT-ID $x_asm_support_id
    }
}

when ASM_REQUEST_DONE {
     Collect the Support ID and store it so we can add it to a HTTP header
    set x_asm_support_id [ASM::support_id]
}
