Hello,

Lately there has been talk of a possible problem with Chrome 100, which is due to be released next month.
Could Canvas have problems with the useragent?

Thanks

Hello,

Thanks for your Concerns. We have not tested Canvas on Chrome 100 as of yet. We are forwarding this to our core development team and will get back to you with more explanations shortly. Thanks for your Patience.

Meanwhile, do let us know if we can help you with anything else or if you find any further issues with Canvas.

Hello,

Thanks for your Patience!

We have gathered more information on this and can confirm that Canvas Codes will not break due to this, as, this is something Server related and may cause issues on Servers. We have just checked this for our Live Previews and everything works perfectly without any issues.

To test the Google Chrome 100 user agent on your own sites or sites you visit, you can enable this test using the following steps:

  1. Open Google Chrome, enter chrome://flags in the address bar, and press enter.
  2. Search for Force major version to 100 in User-Agent in the search field, and when the option appears, enable it.
  3. When prompted to relaunch the browser, please do so.
  4. Once the browser relaunches, you can close the chrome://flags screen.

Then you can check your Canvas based Websites and verify this.

Hope this Helps!

Let us know if we can help you with anything else or if you find any further issues.
