[SOLVED] How do I set a default User Agent on an HttpClient?

Issue

It’s easy to set a user agent on an HttpRequest, but often I want to use a single HttpClient and use the same user agent every time, rather than having to set it on each request.

Solution

You can solve this easily using:

HttpClient _client = new HttpClient();
_client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Add("User-Agent", "C# App");
