CAPTCHA solving and ad blocking - Driver

Both flags default to false.

CAPTCHA solving

captchaSolver: true loads Driver’s solver extension into the session’s Chrome. Challenges that appear during the session are solved in the browser; your script doesn’t change.

{ "captchaSolver": true }

const session = await createSession({ captchaSolver: true });

session = create_session(captchaSolver=True)

Solving takes time. Give steps that may hit a challenge a generous timeout and rely on your framework’s auto-waiting, not fixed sleeps. If a challenge isn’t solved, a person can finish it in the same session through the live view.

Ad blocking

adblock: true blocks ads in the session. Pages load faster and move fewer bytes, which is what you’re billed on. Some sites detect ad blockers and change behaviour, so leave it off when fidelity matters.

{ "adblock": true }

const session = await createSession({ adblock: true });

session = create_session(adblock=True)
