Hi.  
I want to make two http requests.  
Get the json data of the response body from the first request,  
I want to use that json data as the value of the header of the second request.

For example:

```auto
name: http
schedule: '* * * * *'
urls: ["http://my-first-url.kr"]
check.request:
    method: "POST"
check.response:
    status: 200
    json:
        condition:
            equals:
                myField: '{ myKey: abcd-efgh-defg}'

```

In the first request I get **myKey** from the response body.

```auto
name: http
schedule: '* * * * *'
urls: ["http://my-second-url.kr"]
check.request:
    method: "POST"
    headers:
        'myKey': 'abcd-efgh-defg'
check.response:
    status: 200

```

And I want to make this second request with this **myKey** in the header.

I want to combine these two requests into one.  
Is this possible in heartbeat?  
If not, can I register issues to add new features to GitHub?

Unfortunately we don't support this today, but yes, please open an issue for this feature! It makes the most sense to open the issue on our uptime repo here: [https://github.com/elastic/uptime](https://github.com/elastic/uptime)
