YOU'RE MY FKING HERO! I've been grinding the whole damn day trying to interact with the same webdriver session and to no results, until you showed how it's done... I've done some tweaks of course, I do everything inside my python code, no console required, BUT without you I couldn't have done NOTHING. Thank you again.
I've been getting a deprecation warning, do you know any solution?
@@juanpablomessmer2630 same here did you get any solution ?
From Nigeria 🇳🇬, you are amazing.....This solved a lot of problems
Yo what project are you using selinium for
I've been looking for couple of days for thinking this, you're definitely a live saver. Thanks sir for your kind sharing
You are most welcome
Very Nice, saved huge amount of time with simple steps to introduce.

hey can you give me source code im getting errors
hello, I tried to do as you said, and it worked for about a week but all of a sudden python just isnt going to the opened chrome tab, I updated my webdriver and made sure it is in line with my chrome version and it works without options.
cmd:
cd C:\Program Files\Google\Chrome\Application
chrome.exe --remote-debugging-port=8989 -user-data-dir="C:\Users\Mac\Desktop\Drive D\MJ\Python\chromeprofile"
in python:
opt = Options()
opt.add_experimental_option("debuggerAddress", "localhost:8989")
driver = webdriver.Chrome(options=opt)
please help, very much appreciated
Sir, can you please say why did you take remote-debugging-port (8989) instead of (9222) which is shown on Chrome Devtools Protocal... What port number should I take
You can use any port number you can use 8989 or 9222 you just have to the same in program.
@@Mukeshotwani Thank You
So for me I want to do a script that is automated to do some scraping, but how I can automate the part of cmd?
Using batch command or shell
works great if you have only 1 browser instant open for that account but what about if you have many accounts open...can we access that specific instance?
can you please tell me how can I attach this session to one of my profile because I need to enable extension but on the fly it takes time, does it possible?
Sorry mate, this I have not tried.
@@Mukeshotwani thank you so much for your reply. Is that possible that we can run the session with an extension enabled.
Hello, what if o want open a new brownser, and get logged in, after that I want open a new browser but with the same session (that remain logged in) , how can I do it? I want be logged in two different windows of same browser and be managed each window with different parts of script
In this code I need to manually type the username, password and two factor auth, after that code should run. what to do?
Thanks for the video, btw: Do you know if CloudFlare DDoS protection will redirect correctly if it gets executed when doing tests using this method shown in the video? I ask because when you use the chromedriver even with user data dir and profile directory, after several tests CloudFlare DDoS protection appears and it doesn't redirect you because it thinks you are a bad bot that wants to shut down the website in which you are doing tests, please let me know if this doesn't happen when using this method.
How would you do this exact same thing on a Mac? I’m having trouble setting up the local host.
Any help is appreciated, thanks!
Any Idea how do we remote debug from a host computer to remote computer using webdriver.Remote(command_executer=:port) instead of webdriver.Chrome()
Hi Mukesh,
In the start i got error likr"DeprecationWarning: use options instead of chrome_options". so i tried using options but ended with following error.
selenium.common.exceptions.WebDriverException: Message: unknown error: cannot connect to chrome at localhost:8080
from chrome not reachable.
Previously i was using "chrome.exe --remote-debugging--port=8080 --user-data-dir="C:\Drivers\ChromeData""
But i use the following cmd line to open a chrome in debugger mode , i am able to proceed.
chrome.exe --remote-debugging-port=8080 --no-first-run --no-default-browser-check --user-data-dir="C:\Drivers\ChromeData"
Great Minati thank you for updating.
thank you so much
Thanks for sharing
Looking forward for more videos on python sir thank u mukesh..
please how can i use it (chromiun --remote-debuggin-port=9105 --user-data-dir='/home/olix/Desktop/data9105') in linux but have it stay like it is on windows even if i close terminal. ???
thanks for answer.
Once you close the terminal it will close the session.
@@Mukeshotwani thank you for your answer you are a good person. what I would like to know is how to do to keep the session in linux if I want to close the terminal or is it impossible to do? thank you.
if we wanted the same result, but not on the existing tab. but a new tab should open on the already window and execute the script. can anyone help please?
Hi Raj, not tried this. You might have to do some R&D here.

Hello, you opened the browser in cmd, how can i open like this but in a python code? i mean like: my code open the chrome in debug mode and after connect

Not working for selenium 4. Is there any solution for this problem in selenium 4?
For selenium 4.10.0+
executable_path was removed and need to use a service
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.service import Service
service = Service(executable_path='./chromedriver.exe')
options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
driver = webdriver.Chrome(service=service, options=options)
^if you make the above changes it will work
@@NayyarAbbas-sh1vw thanks dude I will try it out
sir its showing error
No pyvenv.cfg file
Hello Sir, How to achieve this in macbook? Can you please guide me.
Please help I got this error. Do you know how to fix it? driver = webdriver.chrome(executable_path= "C:\\Users\\PC-home\\Documents\\Dan\\chromedriver.exe" , chrome_options = opt)
TypeError: 'module' object is not callable
I am trying to make a whatsapp bot. but web needs a registration right after opening the window. so I needed this buddy. thx
Great Orhan, I am glad it helped.
Is there other way to connect already opened browser without using remote debugging port? 🤔
Omg.... you saved me so much time. THANK YOU!!!
It was great video but i was thinking can we open the browser which we opened manually in which already all cookies are stored which helps us bypass login option?
moreover how to perform this action on linux, as i am a newbie.
Hey Shuham once you open browser using DevTools you can login which will have session active, then you can use the same.
GOD! Thank you for this tutorial! 🏆
I am glad it helped

Hey Mukesh, can you do the same thing using robotframework?
hello sir, Can we run this code on multiple open drivers?
Hi Veenay it works on specific browser with port.
@@Mukeshotwani Ok thank you so much, I'll mail you regarding one small query if you can help.

Great sir, Is there any github link for the code ?? I had'nt found in description.
Love this channel 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

How to do this in firefox browser as experimental_option debuggerAddress is not present. If anyone know help me out...
2:25 why did u change protocol from 9222 to 8989?
You can use any port and make sure you use same port number is code as well. I have 8989 is my code too.
great, it really helps
Thank you
loved the fact that it is available on python also
Yes I am loving this too.
Does it work on mac as well ?
Yes Caner why not.
how can we change the download director to download files to a specific folder?
Hi Ninjamoshi,
Official link chromedriver.chromium.org/capabilities
Please find below code
ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();
Map prefs = new HashMap();
prefs.put("download.default_directory", "/directory/path");
options.setExperimentalOption("prefs", prefs);
@@Mukeshotwani hi sir can give an example regarding the same ? like make video or a blog
using python
also can ou change the download path On Already Opened Browser?
Hey Mukesh ! I wish to make the same process in Firefox. Can you tell me small steps in the comment plz.
Hi Malik, I will try for FF as well if possible.
Very clear explanation brother. thanks a lot
Thanks Aswin
Great video, helped me out a lot!
Awesome, thank you!
This is so great, thank you. Is there a way to also include the first part into the script? I mean that instead of going to "cmd" and manually inputing all the "-- remote-debuggin-port" we can also include that in the script somehow?
You can add this to your code:
import shlex, subprocess
subprocess.Popen(shlex.split(r''' FIRST PART '''))
Or also you can put it in a .bak before the "start python file.py"
Mukesh, is it possible to explain/comment on this question?
you can use pyautogui to do that part by gui automation
Yes make a bat file and then include in your program using subprocess module
i think , os module has a class that inputs cmd commands
Amazing. Thank you very much for this awesome tutorial.
nice
I use to update my profile inevery 5 minutes on a local job platform, Thank Yoıu

@@krishnachaitanya836 : can i get your number to discuss few things
by using jupyter notebook or something similar you can easily execute code line by line thus you don't have to comment previous lines.
In my use case I wanted to make a web bot which involved a lot of trial and error and loading session each time was pain in the ass.
Noted Sir.
