I am automating an internal application of my client which is having LDAP authentication.
I am using Selenium 3.141.59 with C#, Chrome browser 78.
Issue:
When I have open browser manually and place url then browser displaying sign-in Pop-up to enter the userID and password. (refer screenshot)
Same time when Selenium launch browser instance then navigate to same url, it's not showing any sign-in pop-up.
Due this I was unable to continue next steps in automation.
I have tried send the userID and password along with url as blow but it's also not redirecting.
https://userID:password#url
Can anyone help me, how to resolve this issue.
What you have tried is not supported any more. You now have to include authentication headers in requests. In your case I would recommend to set up a proxy which would add headers to all outcoming messages of your browser
For example you can use Browsermob Proxy that you can configure just in your tests. Some details of how basic authentication works you can find here. It is solution for Java, however you can find which headers to set up and which values to assign (In short: header - Authorization: Basic username:password Realm="" where username:password is credentials pair encoded in Base64).
This also might be useful for you: How do I encode and decode a base64 string?
UPD: This is solution for Python Selenium.

I want to automate requests on a website and when doing so, I need a session cookie in order to identify myself.
When checking the network tab, I can clearly see the session cookie, but when checking the Application tab, this cookie is not shown. After accessing this website with selenium and calling driver.get_cookies() with Python, I only get the cookies shown in the Application tab.
I need to do this with selenium because this way it's possible to login. Only using requests will not work.
I do not have many clues on how to get that cookie and have almost 0 experience in this field, hence my question.
When i open website there pop-up window asking password(admin) and without user name so how handle the pop-up authentication window by using selenium java and I was used Firefox driver.
My requirement is without user name and only enter the password as admin type need to handle the pop-up window
If your application is protected by basic access control you should be able to bypass it by simply providing your credentials as a part of the URL string:
driver.get("http://your-username:your-password#example.com");

Authentication with Selenium
For more complex authentication schemes like NTLM or Kerberos you will need to construct proper Authorization header and add it to your request via i.e. BrowserMob Proxy. Check out Handling Authentication Requests with Selenium - Prologue article for more information on implementing this if needed.
I am running testcafe tests on an authentication page and I can see that testcafe is modifying/removing/adding the headers when sending the requests to the website and this is blocking me to do 2FA on this page
As soon as I got the issue, I tried to do the automation with Selenium just to confirm it is testcafe issue. As selenium doesn't create a proxy to insert the js scripts and automate the website I could do the automation with selenium, but I want to use testcafe as the site is developed in react.
await t.typeText(this.emailInput, config.userEmail)
.click(this.nextButton)
.typeText(this.passwordInput, config.userPassword)
.click(this.nextButton)
.click(this.otpOption)
.typeText(this.otpInput, this.token)
.click(this.signinButton)
}
When clicking on the next button I should have the 2FA form asking for the code, but I got a page saying was not possible to do the authentication (Something wrong happened) and I saw the response code for the BeginAuth endpoint was 222 without any response instead of 200.
The URL is that I am using to authenticate looks like this one:
https://login.microsoftonline.com/client uuid/oauth2/authorize?response_type=code%20id_token&response_mode=form_post&client_id=client uuid&scope=openid&x-client-Ver=4.0.0
Testcafe team found out this is a bug on testcafe-hammerhead, they have fixed and it is going to be included in the next release.

For now I am generating the cookie in the automation and sending it in the header.
Good day to all.
I'm use Selenium WebDriver to automatically test execute. But on development site using HTTP base autentification. I found AutoAuth addon for Firefox. It save login/password and don't need type credentional each time.
But this plugin don't save credentions. I'm reinstall addon and firefox, delete cookie, but nothing. On this machine in other user plugin work successfylly. Maybe, anybody have and resolve this problem?
To author of addon I wrote already.
Way:https://login:passwd#host don't help too...
Do you mean plugin not working on invoking with webdriver? simple way to create profile and call that provide in webdriver.
Here is the way to create firefox profile. Install that add-in and save credentials.
Call above saved profile in webdriver
ProfilesIni allProfiles = new ProfilesIni();
FirefoxProfile profile = allProfiles.getProfile("selenium");
WebDriver driver = FirefoxDriver(profile);
Thank You,

If it's a HTTP Basic Authentication, then you can set the credentials in the URL. Note that it requires to set the "network.http.phishy-userpass-length" preference to enable it.
Here is a working example with Selenium / Firefox / Python:
from selenium import webdriver
profile = webdriver.FirefoxProfile()
profile.set_preference("network.http.phishy-userpass-length", 255)
driver = webdriver.Firefox(profile)
driver.get("http://admin:admin#the-internet.herokuapp.com/basic_auth")
The approach I've used very successfully is to set up an embedded Browsermob proxy server (in Java code) and register a RequestInterceptor to intercept all incoming requests (that match the host / URL pattern in question).
When you have a request that would otherwise need Basic auth, add an Authorization HTTP header with the credentials required ('Basic ' + the Base64-encoded 'user:pass' string. So for 'foo:bar' you'd set the value Basic Zm9vOmJhcg==)
Start the server, set it as a web proxy for Selenium traffic, and when a request is made that requires authentication, the proxy will add the header, the browser will see it, verify the credentials, and not need to pop up the dialog.
You won't need to deal with the dialog at all.
Other benefits:
It's a pure HTTP solution, it works the same across all browsers and operating systems.
No need for any hard-to-automate add-ons and plugins, any manual intervention.
No need for custom profiles, custom preferences etc.
You control credentials in your test code, and don't store them elsewhere.
I need to log into site:
play.pl
my mobile provider and fetch some data.
They use SAML. I'm unable to do this using CURL or Selenium. Any ideas what shoud i do/check?
AFAIK, neither cURL or Selenium has an inbuilt SAML stack.
So you would either have to add a "plug-in" using something like OpenSAML or send a "hard-coded" SAML message.
The problem with the latter is that SAML is very strict re. the time elapsed between send / receive so the time in the message would have to reflect current time.
