To avoid mark as duplicate then I put some source where I've read :

Currently I want to make python selenium application so that it could send my message to my customer. On those 2 articles on above say if possible to use local storage to keep logged in into web.whatsapp.com after scan qr-code once.

this is my code :

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
import time
import sys
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options

chromepath = r'E:\chromedriver\chromedriver.exe'
options = webdriver.ChromeOptions() 
options.add_argument("user-data-dir=C:\\Users\\user\\AppData\\Local\\Google\\Chrome\\User Data")
driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path=chromepath, chrome_options=options)

This code worked well, so I can open web.whatsapp.com with login at once, and then use it to send message.

Q : Is possible to save whatsapp session from chrome local storage to database eg : mysql or etc so that I can use it to make whatsapp web keep logged in although with different device / computer.

In other word is possible to change the value of : 

user-data-dir=C:\\Users\\user\\AppData\\Local\\Google\\Chrome\\User Data

with the value of web.whatsapp.com session that stored in my database?

Note : if not possible, please tell me another solution so that I still can use it to access whatsapp account in another device without copy user data folder and then move to new device.

Thanks

if using linux or mac go to your terminal and type :

chromium --remote-debugging-port=9250

where chromium is the browser and 9250 is a port number which you can choose and then in your selenium file while making a selenium object

opts=Options()
opts.add_experimental_option("debuggerAddress","localhost:9250")
driver=webdriver.Chrome(options=opts)

and this shall open your browser with every websites logged in.
