Examples

Using Sec-CH-UA-Model

A server requests the Sec-CH-UA-Model header by including {{HTTPHeader("Accept-CH")}} in a response to any request from the client, using the name of the desired header as a token:

http
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Accept-CH: Sec-CH-UA-Model

The client may choose to provide the hint, and add the Sec-CH-UA-Model header to subsequent requests. For example, on mobile phone the client might add the header as shown:

http
GET /my/page HTTP/1.1
Host: example.site

Sec-CH-UA: " Not A;Brand";v="99", "Chromium";v="96", "Google Chrome";v="96"
Sec-CH-UA-Mobile: ?1
Sec-CH-UA-Platform: "Android"
Sec-CH-UA-Bitness: "64"
Sec-CH-UA-Model: "Pixel 3 XL"
