I do it by adding them to the URI in the POST request's start-line.
For example, here is some debug output from my app:
131203 12:26:48 DEBUG Executing POST request.
131203 12:26:48 DEBUG >>> POST

In the above example, you may wonder why I added a "CorrelationID" property in
addition to "JMSCorrelationID". I do that because when GETting messages using
ActiveMQ's REST API, the ActiveMQ broker does *NOT* provide the correlation ID
header field as an HTTP header. I view that as a significant short-coming and
entered Jira AMQ-4072<https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMQ-4072> back on
24Sep2012, but that Jira was closed because I didn't provide any test cases or
a patch.
Since the MessageServlet does create HTTP headers for message
*properties*, I have my app specifically look for either an HTTP header named
JMSCorrelationID or CorrelationID. That enables my app to use the REST API to
select based on correlation ID only if the messages contain a "CorrelationID"
*property*. Remember, the ActiveMQ's MessageServlet does not add an HTTP
header line for the message's JMSCorrelationID header field. I would love to
see this fixed so I don't have to tell customers to provide both when putting
messages on the queue with some client other than mine.

Subject: ActiveMQ: REST API and JMS Headers
Hello,
When putting messages to ActiveMQ via the RESTful API (see for example
http://activemq.apache.org/rest.html), how am I able to set the JMS Headers
such as Correlation Id, Priority, ReplyToQueue, Expiry, etc? Can someone
please let me know or point me to the appropriate resource?
Note that the sender is not a Java application.
Thanks.
