So, for awhile now, the Write.as Archive Page Generator on my hobby site wasn't working anymore. For some reason, calls to the Write.as api just started failing. The error I was getting back was “The response ended prematurely.”

Took me awhile, but I finally found a fix for the error. Turns out, I now need to add a “user-agent” default header value to my requests, to allow the api call to go through. This seems to be an issue affecting Web APIs written using C#/.NET starting June 2024. Credit goes to this answer from StackOverflow.
