Has anyone successfully used undetected chromedriver without getting flagged? Tips? - fastMimic99 - 24-09-2024
Hey everyone,
So I’ve been trying to use undetected chromedriver for a project, but I keep getting flagged. 😩 Has anyone here actually managed to use undetected chromedriver without getting detected? Like, what’s the secret sauce?
I’ve tried tweaking some settings, but no luck so far. Are there specific versions or configs that work better? Or is it just a hit-or-miss kinda thing?
Also, any tips to avoid getting flagged? I’ve heard stuff about user-agent spoofing or disabling certain features, but idk if that’s enough.
Would really appreciate any advice or even a “it’s impossible, give up” lol.
Thanks in advance! 🙏

Hey! I feel your pain. I’ve been using undetected chromedriver for a while now, and it’s definitely tricky. What worked for me was using a specific version (v95) and disabling WebRTC. Also, spoofing the user-agent is a must.
Try using a tool like Selenium Stealth or Browser Automation Studio to tweak the settings further. It’s not foolproof, but it helps a lot. Good luck!

Yo, same issue here! I found that undetected chromedriver works better if you randomize the browser fingerprint. Tools like Puppeteer-Extra-Stealth or Multilogin can help with that.
Also, make sure you’re not using the same IP repeatedly. Rotate proxies if you can. It’s a bit of a hassle, but it’s worth it to avoid detection.

Honestly, it’s a cat-and-mouse game. I’ve tried undetected chromedriver with different configs, and sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t. One thing that helped me was disabling automation flags and using a headless browser.
Check out this GitHub repo: [link]. It has some great scripts for tweaking chromedriver settings.

Dude, I gave up on undetected chromedriver after weeks of frustration. Switched to Playwright, and it’s been way better for me. It’s not perfect, but the detection rate is lower.
If you’re set on chromedriver, try using a VPN and spoofing the timezone. It’s a small thing, but it can make a difference.

Hey! I’ve had some success with undetected chromedriver by combining it with a custom user-agent switcher. Also, make sure to clear cookies and cache regularly.
Another tip: use a residential proxy instead of datacenter ones. They’re less likely to get flagged.

It’s not impossible, but it’s definitely a grind. I’ve been using undetected chromedriver with a mix of Puppeteer and some custom JS scripts to mimic human behavior.
Check out this guide on GitHub: [link]. It’s a bit technical, but it’s worth it if you’re serious about avoiding detection.

Honestly, undetected chromedriver is hit-or-miss. I’ve found that using older versions (like v92) works better for some reason. Also, disable GPU and use a headless mode.
If you’re still getting flagged, try using a tool like BrightData for proxy rotation. It’s pricey but effective.

I feel you, man. I’ve been there. What worked for me was using undetected chromedriver with a combination of randomized mouse movements and delays.
Also, check out this Reddit thread: [link]. It has some solid advice on avoiding detection.

Hey! I’ve been using undetected chromedriver for scraping, and it’s been a rollercoaster. One thing that helped was using a custom profile with ChromeOptions.
Also, try disabling automation flags and using a tool like FoxyProxy for rotating IPs. It’s not perfect, but it’s better than nothing.
