Custom User Agent for HttpClient?

Question

can I set a custom User Agent for a HttpClient?

I need to view websites in their mobile form.

Answer 1

var client = new HttpClient();
client.DefaultRequestHeaders.UserAgent.ParseAdd("MyAgent/1.0");

There is also a TryParseAdd if you want to catch bad attempts at adding it and Add if you want to create the ProductInfoHeaderValue with a name and version number yourself.
