Additional Information

User-Agent Header

The Azure Active Directory Snap Pack utilizes the REST HTTP Client to send HTTP requests to the Azure endpoint. This process incorporates a User-Agent header with the value of "SnapLogic" for every request. By including the User-Agent header, you can monitor and track the requests made to the Azure endpoint, allowing you to determine the total count of requests made.

To view the User-Agent number for a user or group:

  1. Log in to the Azure portal.

  2. Navigate to Azure services > Azure Active Directory.

  3. Navigate to Users/Groups and select the desired User/Group.

  4. Click Audit logs in the left navigation menu.
    In the right pane, you can view the User-Agent number in the following format:
    SnapLogic (<build_number>) - pid-113e3955-1969-4541-9c9c-e3e0c897cccd. For example, a PR build might have SnapLogic (PR21312) - pid-113e3955-1969-4541-9c9c-e3e0c897cccd as the User Agent
    The pid value comes from Microsoft®.
