How to create Python Selenium Chrome webdriver remote with Current user data?

Question

1. How I create LOCAL Chrome Webdriver WITH Current user data

    chromedriver = "/Users....../chromedriver" os.environ["webdriver.chrome.driver"] = chromedriver options = webdriver.ChromeOptions() options.add_argument(r"user-data-dir=/Users..../Google/Chrome") webdriver.Chrome(executable_path=chromedriver, chrome_options=options)

2. How I create REMOTE Chrome webdriver with clear - new user data

   webdriver.Remote(command_executor="http://192.168.1.30:4441/wd/hub", desired_capabilities=DesiredCapabilities.CHROME)

Now, How create Remote Chrome webdriver with current user data?

Answer 1

Try this:

os.environ["webdriver.chrome.driver"] = chromedriver
options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
options.add_argument("--user-data-dir=/Users..../Google/Chrome")
webdriver.Remote("http://192.168.1.30:4441/wd/hub",
        options.to_capabilities())

And if you have your chromedriver.exe on the PATH then you should not need this part:

chromedriver = "/Users....../chromedriver"

Not sure if that works for you, but here is an example that let me start remote chrome webdriver with desired chromeOption for language:

options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
options.add_argument("--lang=de")
chrome_remote = webdriver.Remote('http://hostname:4444/wd/hub', options.to_capabilities())
