Spring Boot request header return null value

I have a spring boot project which has some Rest APIs in it. I have two custom headers named request_date and tenant respectively.

I am trying to read the value of these headers in an interceptor, but it reads the value for only tenant and returns null for request_date.

Important

• I use a filter to wrap the request object because I want to read the request body later.
• There is a filter to add CORS headers.

When I run my project on localhost and debug the code, I am successfully able to read both the headers' values.

However, when I deploy my application in production and make the request using postman or some other client, the request_date header's value is always read as null.

I am not sure what seems to be the problem with this. I am using Spring boot v1.5.10.RELEASE and JDK 1.8

Note:

• I have tried to rename the header to something like input_date. However, it still reads null.

The following is the relevant code

TestInterceptor

public class TestInterceptor extends HandlerInterceptorAdapter {

    @Override
    public boolean preHandle(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response, Object handler) throws Exception {

        String requestDate = request.getHeader("request_date");
        String tenant = request.getHeader("Tenant");

        /*Perform some checks*/

        return super.preHandle(request, response, handler);
    }
}

CorsFilter

public class ApiCorsFilter extends OncePerRequestFilter {

    @Override
    protected void doFilterInternal(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response, FilterChain chain) throws ServletException, IOException {
        response.setHeader("Access-Control-Allow-Origin", "*");
        response.setHeader("Access-Control-Allow-Methods", "POST, GET, PATCH, OPTIONS, DELETE, PUT");
        response.setHeader("Access-Control-Max-Age", "3600");
        response.setHeader("Access-Control-Allow-Headers", "Content-Type, Access-Control-Allow-Headers," +
                " X-Requested-With, Origin, X-Auth-Token, Tenant, request_date");
        response.addHeader("Access-Control-Expose-Headers", "X-Auth-Token, Content-Disposition");
        chain.doFilter(request, response);
    }
}

RequestCacheFilter

public class RequestCacheFilter extends OncePerRequestFilter {

    @Override
    protected void doFilterInternal(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response,
                                    FilterChain filterChain) throws ServletException, IOException {

        HttpServletRequest req = new RequestWrapper(request);
        String body = ((RequestWrapper) req).getBody();

        /*Do some operation*/

        filterChain.doFilter(req, response);
    }
}
