It provides a wide variety of tools to simulate real user behavior when browsing the internet, such as clicking buttons, filling out forms, navigating through pages, etc. One of the most common use cases of the framework is web scraping, a process of automatically collecting data from the web. Many modern websites use dynamic rendering, meaning that the content is not immediately visible when making a request to the page. Selenium shines in this aspect, as it can pre-render pages before any further actions are performed with the page, ensuring that you get what you see. For safety reasons, some websites also restrict or limit automated browser activities. Selenium offers the ability to integrate Decodo proxies into your script, so that your actions appear as if they were coming from different locations worldwide. This makes them appear genuine and harder to track and block. Getting Started To begin, you'll need proxy information from the Decodo dashboard. In this example, we're using residential proxies. Follow these steps to get the authentication information and endpoints for your script: 1. Open the proxy setup tab. 2. Navigate to the Endpoint generator. 3. Configure the parameters according to your needs. Set your authentication method, location, session type, and protocol. 4.
