I can not bypass Cloudfare captcha

[MacMarde]

My code is:

from seleniumbase import Driver

driver = Driver(uc=True)
driver.open("https://www.nowsecure.nl")

I have to click the checkbox and it stucks there again and again.

I am using new mobile IPs and tested the same website with a regular Chrome browser started without python/Seleniumbase and it is working.

I have the same problem

[mdmintz]

Use driver.get, not driver.open:

from seleniumbase import Driver
import time

driver = Driver(uc=True)
driver.get("https://nowsecure.nl/#relax")
time.sleep(6)
driver.quit()

driver.open(url) is for opening a web page when you want UC Mode disabled.

driver.get(url) opens a web page using UC Mode if UC Mode is enabled.

[FranciscoPalomares]

I get caught with get too

[mdmintz]

@FranciscoPalomares Did you run the same code sample that I provided?

[MacMarde]

driver.open(url) is for opening a web page when you want UC Mode disabled.

driver.get(url) opens a web page using UC Mode if UC Mode is enabled.

@mdmintz Maybe I did misunderstand you from this post

But you are right it is working now. Thank you so much.

Can't I use this code found here:

user_data_dir=None, # Set the Chrome user data directory to use.

resulting in:

from seleniumbase import Driver
driver = Driver(uc=True, user_data_dir=xyz)
driver.get("https://nowsecure.nl/#relax")

I really need to use UC with specified user_data_dir.
Any solution?

[mdmintz]

@MacMarde Yes, technically you could use the user_data_dir parameter, but it is very easy for websites to see if your use_data_dir settings are out-of-sync with your Chrome settings, which would make you look like a bot instead of a human. The default user_data_dir settings are in sync with your browser, which makes you look human (even if you're using SeleniumBase).

[MacMarde]

@mdmintz I will have to try it, because I do have no other solution if I do understand you right.
Do you know alternatives to UC in general for python?

[mdmintz]

@MacMarde It's the best there is currently. What reason is there for changing the default user_data_dir? Having a user_data_dir that's out-of-sync with your Chrome can be a problem, regardless of the framework you use.

[MacMarde]

@mdmintz
That is also true for always having a new user_data_dir without any history.
I have to test both probably.

[mdmintz]

driver.open() maps to driver.get() now, to avoid confusion. (version 4.17.14)
In UC Mode driver.open() and driver.get() are special.
The old non-UC get() method is now default_get().

@mdmintz
How to check checkbox with code:

from seleniumbase import Driver
import time

driver = Driver(uc=True)
driver.get("https://nowsecure.nl/#relax")
time.sleep(6)
driver.quit()

For me it's impossible. Get detected with selenium, Ok manual . Thanks

[mdmintz]

@FranciscoPalomares If you have to check a checkbox with Selenium to prove you're not a bot, then you'll get caught. Avoid having to check that checkbox with Selenium.
