Adobe Commerce 2.3 reached end of support in September 2022.

Protected endpoints

If CAPTCHA or reCAPTCHA is enabled on pages requiring shopper input, then in most cases, the corresponding endpoints that send requests to the Magento server must include an HTTP header that contains a value entered by the shopper (for CAPTCHA) or generated by the Google API (for reCAPTCHA). However, if you specify an integration authorization token in the header of the endpoint, then you do not supply a header specific to CAPTCHA or reCAPTCHA.

The HTTP X-Captcha and X-ReCaptcha headers:

  • Cannot be received by an automated script or a non-UI API call. They are captured and returned by the UI Web form only.
  • Are optional in protected mutation API calls that provide integration authorization tokens only. They cannot be skipped when you provide an Admin or Bearer token.

CAPTCHA

The following table lists the forms that can be configured to require CAPTCHA. Go to Stores > Configuration > Customers > Customer Configuration > CAPTCHA > Forms to enable or disable CAPTCHA on these forms.

The endpoint that corresponds to a CAPTCHA-enabled form must include the HTTP X-Captcha header, along with the text the shopper entered in response to the CAPTCHA challenge.
