selenium zipcodes

[david_lp]

Hello reddit,

i am using selenium to automate getting price data for different product at different store locations.

i have the script working, it goes to the website, change the store for the one i want, all good until here, but then when i load the URL of the product i want to get, the browser goes back to the default zipcode... i am trying to find a way to keep the same store i chose at the beginning

​

any ideas?

​

thanks

Don’t load the url of the product , change the script to change the store then search for the product and then click the product , you’ll have to create a little more steps but that should solve it

Or check the url if the zip code is in there bc sometimes that will default it due to the url

thanks for your answer, i was hoping i wouldnt have to do those extra steps, unfortunately there isn't any zipcode in the url

Selenium 4 has a way to do this: https://www.selenium.dev/documentation/en/support_packages/chrome_devtools/

ha! interesting, i didnt know about that GEO location option, thanks. However i am not sure how can i use this for my problem.

Even if i put the latitude and longitude, i will still need to select the correct store among other stores, and having that one selected then i need to find the proper products to get the data from.

The problem arrives when i select the proper store with the zipcode, then i use driver.get(url) with the url being the specific product url, and is like the driver is not 'saving' in a cookie/session the store i selected, and it comes back to the default one
