is it possible to get the protect attribute when using UC model

[jiangxiaoqiang]

I am trying to use SeleniumBase to do some automatic test with Cloudflare turnstile bot-detect. when I tried to get the cloudflare token like this:

def get_token_value(self, local_base_case: BaseCase, retries: int, we: WebElement):
      if retries > 30:
          return
      res_filter = "//input[contains(@name,'cf-turnstile-response')]"
      driver: seleniumbase.undetected.Chrome = local_base_case.driver
      driver.switch_to.default_content()
      wait = WebDriverWait(driver, 30)
      resp_element = wait.until(EC.presence_of_element_located((By.XPATH, res_filter)))
      if resp_element:
          input_element = driver.find_element(value=res_filter, by=By.XPATH)
          cf_token_value = input_element.get_attribute("value")
          if cf_token_value is None:
              self.open_the_form_turnstile_page(sb=local_base_case)
          else:
              print(cf_token_value)
      else:
          sleep(3)
          new_reties = retries + 1
          self.get_token_value(local_base_case=local_base_case, retries=new_reties, we=we)

it always get the '' with the value, the value is a long string, why could not get the vlaue? is it possible to get the value?

It looks like you're doing some odd things in your script. Maybe you should check out the examples:

Here are some existing examples that use --uc mode:

• https://github.com/seleniumbase/SeleniumBase/blob/master/examples/verify_undetected.py
• https://github.com/seleniumbase/SeleniumBase/blob/master/examples/uc_cdp_events.py
• https://github.com/seleniumbase/SeleniumBase/blob/master/examples/raw_uc_mode.py

Here's a raw driver example:

from seleniumbase import Driver
import time

driver = Driver(uc=True)
driver.get("https://nowsecure.nl/#relax")
time.sleep(6)
driver.quit()

Here are some existing examples that use the driver.uc_click(selector) method:

• SeleniumBase/examples/raw_turnstile.py
• SeleniumBase/examples/raw_form_turnstile.py

---

With SeleniumBase, you shouldn't need to use WebDriverWait at all... automatic waiting is already included with SB methods.

Here's an example of getting the data-sitekey on https://seleniumbase.io/apps/recaptcha with the driver.get_attribute() method:

from seleniumbase import Driver

driver = Driver(uc=True)
try:
    driver.get("https://seleniumbase.io/apps/recaptcha")
    sitekey = driver.get_attribute("div.g-recaptcha", "data-sitekey")
    print(sitekey)
finally:
    driver.quit()

@mdmintz is it possible to interact with elements directly? Setting the WebElement to a variable had been pretty useful for my test case and when I try to extract data from the WebElement directly, I just get the classic "script timeout" error

Just a small example
form_html = form.get_attribute('outerHTML').lower()

[mdmintz]

@Jonathynlee Only with raw Selenium methods if they exist. SeleniumBase methods expect a selector to interact with elements.
