About User Agent


What is a User agent? A user agent is a software application or program that acts on behalf of a user when interacting with web servers. It sends requests for resources, such as web pages or files, and handles responses from servers. User agents are commonly found in web browsers but can also exist in other software, such as web crawlers, email clients, and media players. The user agent string, which is a part of the HTTP request header, identifies the type and version of the user agent software. It allows web servers to tailor responses based on the capabilities and preferences of the requesting client.
