API Sample Code - C Sharp
This is a small repository containing sample code for the WhatIsMyBrowser.com API. The code here is written for Microsoft C# and was provided by one of our users/customers: Thanks to Anil Kumar!
Accessing the API is very straightforward and requires no "official" libraries - all you need to do is send a POST request to:
https://api.whatismybrowser.com/api/v1/user_agent_parse
containing two parameters:
user_key
user_agent
The user_key parameter is your API key/token which you obtain by logging in to https://developers.whatismybrowser.com
The user_agent parameter is the particular User Agent you want the API to parse.
The API will return a response in JSON containing everything we are able to tell you based on that user agent.
An important step with C# is url-encoding the user agent. This sample code does this with HttpUtility.UrlEncode(). This prevents the HTTP request library from truncating the user-agent at the first semi-colon that it encounters in the user agent.
