I currently have a working python script leveraging Selenium driver for Edge browser. I need this script to run as job but due to security setting SQL Agent and Windows agent cant open the browser to scrape webpage. I would need script to run in silent mode without opening the edge browser window.

This article seems to be what I need but it is chrome.

I dont post script because the connections and data in script have connections to a private company intranet site.

Use:

var options = new EdgeOptions();
options.AddArguments("--headless");

You can also hide the driver console window:

var options = new EdgeOptions();
options.AddArguments("--headless");
options.AddArgument("--no-default-browser-check");
var chromeDriverService = EdgeDriverService.CreateDefaultService();
chromeDriverService.HideCommandPromptWindow = true;

var driver = new EdgeDriver(chromeDriverService, options);
