Table 106. Remove Headers Properties

Name	Description
`Pattern`	Specifies the pattern used to identify the removed headers. The pattern uses standard wild card character notation where `*` matches any number of characters.
`Description`	Specifies a text description for the node. This description is included in the generated XML file, but it is informational only. It is not used by Apache Camel.
`Exclude Pattern`	Specifies a pattern used to identify headers that should remain in the message. The pattern uses standard wild card character notation where `*` matches any number of characters.
`Id`	Specifies a unique identifier for the endpoint. The tooling automatically generates an id for a node when it is created, but you can remove that id or replace it with your own. The Camel debugger requires all nodes with a breakpoint set to have a unique id. You can use the id to refer to endpoints in your Camel XML file.
