Change default User-Agent in WebView UWP

问题

I need set custom UA and I use

httpRequestMessage.Headers.Add("User-Agent", "blahblah");
theWebView.NavigateWithHttpRequestMessage(httpRequestMessage);

But if I click any link on page this UA erased and set default UA.

I found same question WebView - Define User-Agent on every request but maybe it fixed in 1607?

回答1:

WebView is not a general-purpose browser, it does have some "limitations" that not supported now. There is no API can set the default User-Agent that used in every request. As a workaround we can use WebView.NavigationStarting event along with WebView.NavigateWithHttpRequestMessage method to set User-Agent in every request.

For more information about how to do this, please refer to this answer. The key point here is removing handler for NavigationStarting event and cancelling navigation in the original request and then adding the handler after NavigateWithHttpRequestMessage to make sure NavigationStarting event can capture next requests like following:

WebView wb = new WebView();
wb.NavigationStarting += Wb_NavigationStarting;
...
private void NavigateWithHeader(Uri uri)
{
    var requestMsg = new Windows.Web.Http.HttpRequestMessage(HttpMethod.Get, uri);
    requestMsg.Headers.Add("User-Agent", "blahblah");
    wb.NavigateWithHttpRequestMessage(requestMsg);

    wb.NavigationStarting += Wb_NavigationStarting;
}

private void Wb_NavigationStarting(WebView sender, WebViewNavigationStartingEventArgs args)
{
    wb.NavigationStarting -= Wb_NavigationStarting;
    args.Cancel = true;
    NavigateWithHeader(args.Uri);
}
