I need a help regarding authenticating users via login page.
I am trying to login user and then navigating to the my/account page where user can see his/her account information. Below are the steps I am following which are the same as I am browsing the site.
Below is the script I am using. logData 0 // bring up the login screen navigate https://www.chegg.com/auth?action=login logData 1 // log in setValue name=email someone@example.com setValue name=password MY_PASSWORD submitForm name=login-form navigate https://www.chegg.com/my/account Tab characters are there in the script but somehow they not appearing correctly. Also I am using a legit username/password that works on the site. The issue I am seeing is upon navigating user to my/account page somehow the authentication didn't happen on the first step so it will redirect user back to the login screen. The same username/password works when I try them on the actual site. Any help is appreciated. |

I tend to use exec and execAndWait for login forms these days, so something like this should work bu I've not tested it:

I switched the site considering there is something wrong with the previous site but even with Twitter I am not able to login. navigate https://twitter.com ignoreErrors 1 exec document.getElementById('signin-email').value = 'username' exec document.getElementById('signin-password).value = 'password' execAndWait document.getElementsByClassName('submit')[0].click() navigate https://twitter.com/settings/account Is anyone else faced this issue? What am I doing wrong? |
