如何在 Puppeteer 脚本中使用 session 存储？

Question

I am trying to collect the encounter id from a Puppeteer script that opens a browser. I run these scripts in AWS synthetic canaries. It does not run, the error reads:

sessionStorage is not defined Stack

This is the code I use

let data = sessionStorage.getItem('aw-encounter-id');

Answer 1

The browser (Puppeteer) needs to support sessionStorage. This article may help:

According to that, it might work if you initialize passing a data dir:

   puppeteer.launch({userDataDir: '/tmp/myChromeSession'});
