How to login to bet365 using selenium python

Question

I am trying to login to my account on bet365.com using selenium python. I know that the sites detects selenium and most people usually run into issues. but i didnt get any of the common issues. The sites loads well but when I try to input my correct login details. It says Login details not recognized.

This is my code:

        self.driver.get('https://www.bet365.com')
        
        # Waits until page is fully loaded
        WebDriverWait(self.driver, 20).until(lambda x: 'Log In' in self.driver.page_source)

        login_frame = self.wait(By.CLASS_NAME, 'hm-MainHeaderRHSLoggedOutWide_Login ', time=70)
       
        # Function that clicks the login button
        self.doAction(login_frame)
       
        # Function that waits until the login popup shows
        username = self.wait(By.CLASS_NAME, 'lms-StandardLogin_Username ', time=5)
        username.clear()
        username.send_keys('username') # my username

        password = self.driver.find_element_by_class_name('lms-StandardLogin_Password ')
        password.clear() 
        password.send_keys('password') # my password

        password.send_keys(Keys.RETURN)

is the issue from the site or is the site just saying that because i am using selenium. If i login normally it works fine. Please any swift help will be appreciated

Try to use enter key instead of pass return from password textbox. Same happened to me. Perhaps it would work

from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys
self.driver.find_element_by_class_name("class_name").sendKeys(Keys.ENTER);

It didnt work. I dont think the problem is related to that because even when i click the login button it still says login details recognised – Demaxl Oct 24 '21 at 10:45
Then the issue must be with the cookies. You have to check the cookies while logging in the browser and then copy those cookies. check this link "https://pretagteam.com/question/how-to-save-login-data-to-be-recognized-for-python-selenium-webdriver" – Talal Siddiqui Oct 24 '21 at 12:11
That sounds like a good idea but the problem is that I havent been able to login once using selenium. Is there a way I can manually export the cookies? I mean I will manually login that copy the cookies and paste it into selenium? – Demaxl Oct 24 '21 at 13:53
Please check the link I provided in the last comment. It has a solution in it with code to how to copy, store and use cookies using chromedriver. A library name ```pickle``` – Talal Siddiqui Oct 25 '21 at 05:56

It is almost certainly the website prohibiting your code.

bet.365 is a very popular website that definitely incorporates anti-webscraping and bot detection.

Not to mention is also against their terms of service:

If you are still adament you can check out the thread below for work arounds:

Can a website detect when you are using Selenium with chromedriver?

First off all, change your chromedriver compilation using this link

https://stackoverflow.com/a/52108199/5393597

After, use this script:

driver.get(URL_BET_THREE_SIX_FIVE)

# Check loading page
Wait(driver, 60).until_not(EC.presence_of_element_located((By.CLASS_NAME, "bl-Preloader_SpinnerContainer ")))

# Close popup if exist
try:
    popup = driver.find_element(By.CLASS_NAME, "iip-IntroductoryPopup_Cross")
    popup.click()
except:
    print("Not exist popup")

# Click in login button for open form login
loginButton = Wait(driver, 60).until(EC.presence_of_element_located((By.CLASS_NAME,  "hm-MainHeaderRHSLoggedOutWide_LoginContainer ")))
loginButton.click()

Wait(driver, 60).until(EC.presence_of_element_located((By.CLASS_NAME, "lms-StandardLogin_Username ")))
print("\tinput email")
user = driver.find_element(By.CLASS_NAME, 'lms-StandardLogin_Username ')
user.clear()
user.send_keys(USER)
time.sleep(random.randint(1, 3))
user.send_keys(Keys.TAB)

print("\tinput pwd")
pw = driver.find_element(By.CLASS_NAME, 'lms-StandardLogin_Password ')
pw.send_keys(PASSWORD)
time.sleep(random.randint(1, 3))
pw.send_keys(Keys.ENTER)
