How to get content of a webpage that requires authentication Selenium

Hi; do you have a sample workflow with selenium yada knime in a website with authentication? I was a beginner, so I could not figure it out. I am very happy if you send a sample workflow. I am trying to login to a web site with username and password, then transfer the data from the json table to the csv file. login with both username and password, I need to transfer the csv to the next table with the option I chose. A simple example that will provide insight is very useful. Thank you

with selenium nodes upload files from pc to web browser

You need to use a Send Keys to send the file path to the <input type="file" class="hide" accept=".csv,text/csv"> element. But: Do not click on any ‘upload’ button etc., as this will open a file chooser dialog and from that point on you will no longer be able to control your browser through Selenium.

Hello @qqilihq !

thanks for the feedback

I tried to use find elements before the node frame, but when inspecting the page, the code that returns is "//*[@id=“l_username”] " and the node returns missing values.

I saw in your examples that the inspect code starts with “//frame[@…” . I tried replacing it with this pattern, but without success. Is there another alternative?

Hi fragonidg,

does the page use a <frame>, or is it an <iframe>?

Sorry, I confused the flows. My last answer needed to switch pages with node java snippet. Solved.

In this forum’s stream, the site appears to not show an iframe. I tried name=“FrameGeral” , but without success.

hello
solved: when using the “general” frame (not ID or name) it expanded the fields that could be inspected in find elements. At each stage there was a different frame
