Avoiding Captchas During Keyword-Based URL Extraction in Chrome

Process Overview:
My process involves using over 40 keywords (such as nuts, pin, fastener, atlas, clinch). I open a browser (currently focusing on Chrome), search each keyword, and extract URLs using Table Extraction. However, since the process runs continuously in Chrome, I frequently encounter captchas (reCAPTCHA and image-based captchas), especially while navigating between pages during URL extraction.

Current Approach i have implemented:

  • In Table Extraction, I set the “Delay between pages” to 5.5 seconds.
  • If Chrome throws a captcha, I switch to a different browser (e.g., Edge).

But I’m still getting Chaptcha. I’m looking for a reliable solution to handle or avoid captchas in Chrome.

Welcome to the community

Try to use random movement of mouse or clicks and use hardware events so that the website may avoid captcha

ideally if websites have captcha then there is no specific way to avoid it and they are meant to block any automation activities

one thing you can try is to use incognito mode always and when issue occurs open in incognito again
