There are lots of this exact same question ,but all of the answers are outdated,for example:
This is an outdated answer from 2016: Selenium using Python: enter/provide http proxy password for firefox and another outdated answer from 2017: Selenium using Python: enter/provide http proxy password for firefox
Anyways, when I'm trying to use a proxy which required a username+password like so:
from selenium import webdriver
profile = webdriver.FirefoxProfile()
profile.set_preference("network.proxy.type", 1)
profile.set_preference("network.proxy.http", PROXY_HOST)
profile.set_preference("network.proxy.http_port", PROXY_PORT)
profile.set_preference("network.proxy.socks_username", USERNAME)
profile.set_preference("network.proxy.socks_password", PASSWORD)
profile.set_preference('network.proxy.ssl', PROXY_HOST)
profile.set_preference('network.proxy.ssl_port', PROXY_PORT)
profile.update_preferences()
# executable_path = define the path if u don't already have in the PATH system variable.
driver = webdriver.Firefox(firefox_profile=profile)
page = driver.get('http://whatismyipaddress.com/')
It doesn't work at all.
What's the cleanest way which is actually working to connect through a proxy (given a username and a password as well) right now?
(Bonus points if you can explain why my code doesnt work-the fact it doesnt work makes no sense to me!)
