Weather info yr.no new API

i tried it got the same error, looking at the documents it say "that you must send a unique identifier in the User-Agent header. Any requests with a prohibited or missing User-Agent will receive a 403 Forbidden error."

i don't know how to pass the headers with socket.url but i tried it with http.request, like the below with the User-Agent header, it returns the data

Code:

function get_request(url)

  local http, ltn12, sink, res, err

  ltn12 = require('ltn12')
  http = require('socket.http')
 
  sink = {}

  res, err = http.request({
      url = url,
      method = 'GET',
      headers =
    {
      ["Accept"] = "*/*",
      ["User-Agent"] = "1234567897",  -- i think this can be any number?
    },
    sink = ltn12.sink.table(sink)
  })

  if sink then   
    return table.concat(sink)
  else
    return nil, err
  end
end

x = get_request('https://api.met.no/weatherapi/locationforecast/2.0/complete?lat=67.8596&lon=35.0904&altitude=13')
log(x)
