Answer 1

SHANib's answer didn't work for me. getRequest on ServletRequest has no parameters, at least on my version. However,

<span th:text="${#httpServletRequest.getHeader('User-Agent')}">Agent</span>

worked just fine.

Answer 2

you can access the HttpServletRequest object with #httpServletRequest

So, for example, you can print the user agent like this

 <span th:text="${#httpServletRequest.getRequest('User-Agent')}">Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; MSIE 10.0; Windows NT 6.1; Trident/5.0)</span
