Accept permission request in chrome using selenium
@ExperimentsWithCode
Thank you for your answer again, I have spent almost the whole day today trying to figure out how to do this and I've also tried your suggestion where you add that flag --disable-user-media-security
to chrome, unfortunately it didn't work for me.
However I thought of a really simple solution:
To automatically click on Allow all I have to do is press TAB key three times and then press enter. And so I have written the program to do that automatically and it WORKS !!!
The first TAB pressed when my html page opens directs me to my input box, the second to the address bar and the third on the ALLOW button, then the Enter button is pressed.
The python program uses selenium as well as PyWin32 bindings.
Thank you for taking your time and trying to help me it is much appreciated.
Wrestled with this quite a bit myself.
The easiest way to do this is to avoid getting the permission prompt is to add --use-fake-ui-for-media-stream
to your browser switches.
Here's some shamelessly modified code from @ExperimentsWithCode's answer:
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
chrome_options = Options()
chrome_options.add_argument("--use-fake-ui-for-media-stream")
driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path="path/to/chromedriver", chrome_options=chrome_options)
