Change user agent in QWebEngineView

Question

How to change the user agent in QWebEngineView? I know that for QWebView there is a way to do this but I didn't find the solution for the QWebEngineView.

Answer 1

While constructing QWebEnginePage as one of the arguments you may specify QWebEngineProfile.

QWebEngineProfile - it is a class which contains different settings for your profile which can be shared between web pages.

For setting user agent you will need to use:

void QWebEngineProfile::setHttpUserAgent(const QString & userAgent)

http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qwebengineprofile.html#setHttpUserAgent

QWebEngineProfile is available since Qt 5.5.
