Is the header X-Cloud-Trace-Context set for GKE?

I'm trying to figure out what headers does GKE provide. With AppEngine, X-Cloud-Trace-Context is appended to the headers of each request. However, if the application is deployed to GKE, it looks like X-Cloud-Trace-Context is not set.

Thanks, Derek

The GCLB definitely sends the X-Cloud-Trace-Context to GKE services. I parse that header myself in order to continue the trace which gets started by the load balancer.

Are you using the Google Cloud L7 load balancer as your ingress controller or have you set up something else like nginx or Traefik?
