Parse a mixed list of browsers, devices and bots
Desktop, phone, tablet, TV, console and in-app browsers plus search bots, AI crawlers and HTTP clients, with repeats merged.
Updated November 13, 2026
What this example returns
The dataset’s “Parsed User-Agents” view shows 23 columns: User-Agent, Count, Bot, Bot name, Bot category, Bot producer, Bot info, AI bot, Browser / app, Version, Major, Client type, Engine, Engine version, OS, OS version, OS family, Device type, Brand, Model, Mobile, CPU, and Recognized. See every output field.
What each setting does
The input this example runs User-Agent Parser with. “Try this input” opens it in the console, where you can run it as-is or change any field first.
- User-Agent strings
userAgents Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/131.0.0.0 Safari/537.36, Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/131.0.0.0 Safari/537.36 Edg/131.0.2903.86, Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_15_7) AppleWe…
One User-Agent string per entry: from browser headers, analytics exports, log files or your own app. Each string becomes one row with browser, OS, device, engine, CPU and a bot verdict. `userAgent` (a single string) is accepted too.
- Merge repeated strings
deduplicate Yes
On: one row per distinct User-Agent, with how often it appeared in `count` (you pay once per distinct string). Off: one row per entry, in input order.
- Bots
botFilter Keep all rows
Keep only bot rows (e.g. to spot AI crawlers in your logs) or only real browsers and apps. Rows left out are not charged.

}What it costs
You pay for the events the actor reports, such as each result or page it produces. Platform usage is included in the event prices: compute, proxies, browser and storage cost nothing extra.
- User-Agent parsedfrom $0.00027One saved row: a User-Agent string parsed into browser, engine, OS, device, CPU and bot columns. Entries that are not User-Agents, log lines without one and rows left out by the bot filter are free.
When to use this example
From the User-Agent Parser readme:
Why is a field empty?
User-Agents only carry what the client puts in them. Desktop strings name no device model; iPhones do not name the CPU; Chrome freezes parts of its version and platform (the finer details live in separate Client Hints headers, which are not part of the string); crawlers have no browser or device. Empty means the string does not say, not that parsing failed. recognized: false marks strings nothing matched at all; they are still parsed and charged.
Known limit
count with merging on is over the whole input of the run.
Other ways to run User-Agent Parser
- Find bots and AI crawlers in an access logPaste access-log lines; only bot rows are kept, each with bot name, category, producer and an AI-crawler flag.
- One row per entry, browsers onlyKeep input order with one row per entry, drop bots and HTTP clients, and stop at a row limit.
About User-Agent Parser
Parse User-Agent strings in bulk into browser, version, OS, device type, brand and model, rendering engine and CPU, plus a bot verdict with the bot's name and category (search engines, AI crawlers, monitors, HTTP clients, headless browsers). Paste strings, raw access-log lines or a dataset. No login or API key needed.
