This part of the documentation answers common questions about Requests.
|

|

Encoded Data?
|
||||
-------------
|
||||
|
||||
Requests automatically decompresses gzip-encoded responses, and does
|
||||
its best to decodes response content to unicode when possible.
|
||||
|
||||
You can get direct access to the raw response (and even the socket),
|
||||
if needed as well.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Custom User-Agents?
|
||||
-------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Requests allows you to easily override User-Agent strings, along with
|
||||
any other HTTP Header.
