I’ve tried multiple iterations of this as well, with the same results.

Expected behaviour
The headers are set on every request

Does your issue happen with every document, or just one?
Every document

Code snippet

useEffect(() => {
    if (!viewerInstance) return;

    const customHeaders = Object();
    customHeaders["X-HL-Current-Organization"] = getCurrentOrgId();
    customHeaders.test = "header";

    const { docViewer } = viewerInstance;
    docViewer.loadDocument(`/v1/chart/${chartId}/pdf`, {
      extension: "pdf",
      customHeaders,
      httpHeaders: customHeaders,
    });
  }, [viewerInstance]);

I’ve also tried this with the same result:

 useEffect(() => {
    if (!viewerInstance) return;

    viewerInstance.loadDocument(`/v1/chart/${chartId}/pdf`, {
      extension: "pdf",
      customHeaders: { "X-HL-Current-Organization": getCurrentOrgId() },
    });
  }, [viewerInstance]);
