Add a custom user agent
Actually, there's also a httpbin.org address that only returns the current user agent (https://httpbin.org/user-agent). You'll use this for the current exercise, where you'll manipulate your own user agent to turn it into something meaningful (for the owners of the website you're scraping, that is).
As you saw in the video, there are two ways of customizing your user agent when using httr for fetching web resources:
- Locally, i.e. as an argument to the current request method.
- Globally via
set_config().
