Asset delivery API does not respect client compression preferences

#1

The asset delivery API randomly delivers gzipped data and non-gzipped data, regardless of your headers regarding compression.

Side note: The Content-Type header indicates that Roblox is sending application/octet-stream, when it is actually sending XML.

Expected behavior

The asset delivery API should respect the Accept-Encoding header.

Forgive me if this is under the wrong category, but I figured it should get to the right team anyway.

Hi Jack, Please could you share the url you are trying to call on assetdelivery API and how you’re calling it?

What you are expecting as a response and what you are getting back ?

https;//assetdelivery.roblox.com/v1/asset and the CDN link returned by https;//assetdelivery.roblox.com/v2/asset both seem to randomly return gzipped and non-gzipped content based on asset ID.
