Provide value for User-Agent header on OData (BETA) sources for compatibility with Invantive Cloud

[invantive]

As described in RFC 7231 - section 5.5.3 , a user agent should send a User-Agent field in each request unless specifically configured not to do so. Although this it technically not a hard violation of RFC 7231, I can not imagine a reason why AppSheet does not specify nor allow specification of the user agent. It seems not like a feature request. For instance Power BI specifies a User-Agent, and Qlik allows specification of one.

The value of User-Agent is used by Invantive Cloud to evaluate the requesting user agent and automatically adapt it's behaviour and user tips based on the user-agent.

Invantive Cloud would be able to provide 80+ data sources to Google Sheets' users when the User-Agent would be available.

Without it, the error is currently:

Error
Failed to obtain the OData feed’s metadata.
Please make sure that the root URL is correct, and that the data feed has a valid metadata endpoint.

Your request is out of the scope of this Community Forum for AppSheet Citizen developers.  It would be better directed to AppSheet support.
