Hi there!
So I was hoping programming might be able to help with this. I am trying to learn how to use Selenium for personal projects.

I have tried using normal, straight up selenium but it does not support authorized proxies…
I have tried SeleniumBase, but when I got it working, there were WebRTC leaks that I could not avoid.
I have tried using Undetected-chrome but that too I was unable to get authorized proxies working…
For proxies, I tried seleniumwire as well. That seems to use its own SSL certificates which unfortunately as far as I can tell is easy to detect.
Main purpose for me is web scraping and or simple login to X site, enter X info and close.

So my question is… What is the proper way to use Selenium for automating functions while avoiding detection?

Thank you in advance.

EDIT: I made this post because I am hitting a wall at every turn, and I feel like I might just be approaching this the wrong way, or maybe I’m just missing something crucial. I was hoping someone with more experience could explain to me what is the correct way of doing it without cobbling it together with duct tape.

    Thanks! I appreciate your response, and love the username! :) Fortunately getting the right chrome driver working was one of the very few things that just worked for me. Have you gotten proxies working without proxy detection with this setup, and if so, what did you do?

      Oh, sorry haven’t tried proxies. Just scraping a single site.
