Could you please point us to the documentation that you're reffering to in regards to the general Admin Header in our documentation? Once we have more details, we will be happy to assist further with this.

Thank you!

Sorry for the confusion - In this case the  AdminTools is the Header. The documentation should be read like this: 

Set up one User-Agent header per tool/custom library and per task. For example, if you are using one tool to perform many administrative tasks, use a general header of AdminTools. However, if you are using a few tools or libraries or if you are performing tasks from different business areas (for instance, managing access to dashboards and adding users to a Data Warehouse instance), set up headers for each tool or for each task separately.

This actually refers to our Release Notes here:

Ok Thanks
