I’m trying to interact with the page “Your connection is not private”.
The solution of using options.add_argument('--ignore-certificate-errors')
is not helpful for two reasons:
- I’m using an already open window.
- Even if I was using a “selenium opened window” the script runs non stop, and the issue I’m trying to solve is when my browser disconnects from a splunk dashboard and I want it to automatically connect again(and it pops the private connection window).
How do I click on “Advanced” and then click on “Proceed to splunk_server (unsafe)?

For chrome:
from selenium import webdriver options = webdriver.ChromeOptions() options.add_argument('--ignore-ssl-errors=yes') options.add_argument('--ignore-certificate-errors') driver = webdriver.Chrome(options=options)
If not work then this:
from selenium import webdriver from selenium.webdriver import DesiredCapabilities options = webdriver.ChromeOptions() options.add_argument('--allow-insecure-localhost') # differ on driver version. can ignore. caps = options.to_capabilities() caps["acceptInsecureCerts"] = True driver = webdriver.Chrome(desired_capabilities=caps)
For firefox:
from selenium import webdriver profile = webdriver.FirefoxProfile() profile.accept_untrusted_certs = True driver = webdriver.Firefox(firefox_profile=profile) driver.get('https://cacert.org/') driver.close()
If not work then this:
capabilities = webdriver.DesiredCapabilities().FIREFOX capabilities['acceptSslCerts'] = True driver = webdriver.Firefox(capabilities=capabilities) driver.get('https://cacert.org/') driver.close()
Above all worked for me!
