OMG! 🤖 AI × 2Captcha: I Completely Automated reCAPTCHA! 🚀✨

Hey there, amazing automation enthusiasts! 👋💕

Have you ever been frustrated by those annoying reCAPTCHAs when trying to scrape websites or automate tasks? Well, guess what? I found the perfect solution using 2Captcha API and it's absolutely game-changing! 🤩

When we're doing web scraping or automation, those pesky reCAPTCHAs always get in our way, right? But with 2Captcha API, we can make our bots act just like humans and bypass them completely! Today I'm going to share exactly how to do this using Python and Selenium - it's going to be so exciting! 🎯✨

📌 What We're Going to Build Today! (Get Ready!)

Here's our super cool automation journey:

1. Sign up with 2Captcha and grab our magical API key! 🔑
2. Use Python + Selenium to control our browser like a pro! 🌐
3. Solve reCAPTCHAs automatically with 2Captcha API magic! 🔄
4. Submit forms successfully and celebrate our victory! ✅

Trust me, by the end of this, you'll feel like an automation wizard! Let's dive in! 🪄

🚀 Setting Up 2Captcha API (Your New Best Friend!)

🔹 Step 1: Creating Your 2Captcha Account

First things first - let's get you set up with 2Captcha! It's like getting a VIP pass to the automation world! 💫

# This is going to be our secret weapon! ✨
print("Welcome to the automation revolution! 🤖💕")

🔹 Step 2: Getting Your API Key (The Golden Ticket!)

Once you're logged in:

• Navigate to your shiny dashboard 📊
• Copy that precious API Key (we'll need this beauty for our script!) 🔑
• Add some credits if you want to use the premium features 💰

And just like that, we're ready to rock! 🎸✨

🛠️ Installing Our Super Tools! (Library Party Time!)

Let's get all our awesome libraries installed! This is like assembling our superhero toolkit! 💪

pip install selenium requests webdriver-manager

📌 What Each Library Does (Meet the Team!):

• selenium → Our browser automation superhero! 🦸‍♀️
• requests → The communication expert for 2Captcha API! 📡
• webdriver-manager → The helpful assistant that manages our drivers! 🚗

Isn't it exciting how each tool has its own special power? 🌟

🏗️ Opening the Target Website with Selenium! (Browser Magic!)

Let's start by opening our target website using Selenium. This is where the fun begins! 🎪

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.service import Service
from webdriver_manager.chrome import ChromeDriverManager
import time

# Launch our trusty Chrome browser! 🌟
service = Service(ChromeDriverManager().install())
driver = webdriver.Chrome(service=service)

# Open the website with reCAPTCHA (our mission target! 🎯)
driver.get("https://www.example.com")
time.sleep(3)  # Give the page a moment to load - patience is key! ⏰

print("Browser launched successfully! Ready for action! 🚀")

🔹 What This Magical Code Does:

• Launches Chrome using Selenium like a pro! 💻
• Navigates to our target website - hello there, reCAPTCHA! 👋
• Waits 3 seconds for everything to load nicely 😌

So far so good! Our browser automation adventure has begun! 🎮

🔄 The Main Event: Solving reCAPTCHA with 2Captcha! (The Magic Happens!)

Now for the most exciting part - let's make our bot solve reCAPTCHAs automatically! This is pure magic! ✨🪄

🔹 Step 1: Finding the reCAPTCHA Site Key (Detective Work!)

Every reCAPTCHA has a unique site key - we need to find it first! 🕵️‍♀️

# Let's hunt for that reCAPTCHA site key! 🔍
try:
    recaptcha_element = driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "//div[@class='g-recaptcha']")
    recaptcha_sitekey = recaptcha_element.get_attribute("data-sitekey")
    print(f"Found the secret key! 🗝️: {recaptcha_sitekey}")
except Exception as e:
    print(f"Oops! Couldn't find the reCAPTCHA: {e}")
    # Alternative methods to find reCAPTCHA
    recaptcha_sitekey = "your-site-key-here"  # Fallback option!

🔹 Step 2: Sending Our Request to 2Captcha (Calling for Backup!)

Time to ask 2Captcha to work their magic! This is like calling in the experts! 📞✨

import requests
import json

# Our secret API credentials! 🔐
API_KEY = "your_2captcha_api_key_here"  # Replace with your actual key!
CAPTCHA_URL = "https://2captcha.com/in.php"

# Prepare our magical request payload! 📦
payload = {
    "key": API_KEY,
    "method": "userrecaptcha",
    "googlekey": recaptcha_sitekey,
    "pageurl": driver.current_url,  # Current page URL
    "json": 1
}

print("Sending reCAPTCHA to our AI helpers! 🤖💫")

# Send the request to 2Captcha! 🚀
response = requests.post(CAPTCHA_URL, data=payload)
response_data = response.json()

if response_data["status"] == 1:
    captcha_id = response_data["request"]
    print(f"Success! Got captcha ID: {captcha_id} ✨")
else:
    print(f"Oops! Error: {response_data}")

🔹 Step 3: Waiting for the Solution (Patience, Young Padawan!)

Now we wait for 2Captcha to solve our reCAPTCHA. It's like waiting for a cake to bake! 🍰⏰

# The anticipation is killing me! Let's check for our solution! 🎯
token_url = f"https://2captcha.com/res.php?key={API_KEY}&action=get&id={captcha_id}&json=1"

print("Waiting for our AI heroes to solve the reCAPTCHA... 🤖⏳")

max_attempts = 24  # Maximum waiting time (about 2 minutes)
attempt = 0

while attempt < max_attempts:
    print(f"Checking attempt {attempt + 1}... 🔍")
    
    token_response = requests.get(token_url)
    token_data = token_response.json()
    
    if token_data["status"] == 1:
        recaptcha_token = token_data["request"]
        print("🎉 SUCCESS! We got our golden token! ✨")
        print(f"Token: {recaptcha_token[:50]}...")  # Show first 50 chars
        break
    elif token_data["request"] == "CAPCHA_NOT_READY":
        print("Still working on it... ⏰")
        time.sleep(5)  # Wait 5 seconds before checking again
        attempt += 1
    else:
        print(f"Unexpected response: {token_data}")
        break
else:
    print("Timeout! The reCAPTCHA took too long to solve 😔")

🔹 Step 4: Injecting the Token (The Grand Finale!)

Now for the most satisfying part - injecting our solved token! 🎪✨

# Time to inject our precious token! 💉💎
try:
    # Method 1: Direct injection into the textarea
    print("Injecting token using Method 1... 🧪")
    driver.execute_script(f"""
        document.getElementById('g-recaptcha-response').innerHTML = '{recaptcha_token}';
        document.getElementById('g-recaptcha-response').style.display = 'block';
    """)
    
    # Method 2: Alternative approach for stubborn sites
    print("Adding extra magic with Method 2... ✨")
    driver.execute_script(f"""
        document.querySelector('[name="g-recaptcha-response"]').value = '{recaptcha_token}';
    """)
    
    # Method 3: Trigger the callback if needed
    print("Triggering callbacks... 📞")
    driver.execute_script("""
        if (typeof grecaptcha !== 'undefined' && grecaptcha.getResponse) {
            console.log('reCAPTCHA callback triggered!');
        }
    """)
    
    print("Token injection complete! 🎯✅")
    
    # Give it a moment to process
    time.sleep(2)
    
except Exception as e:
    print(f"Token injection failed: {e} 😔")

🔹 Step 5: Submit the Form (Victory Dance Time!)

Finally, let's submit our form and celebrate our success! 🎊

# Find and click that submit button! 🎯
try:
    # Common submit button selectors
    submit_selectors = [
        "input[type='submit']",
        "button[type='submit']", 
        "#submit",
        ".submit",
        "button:contains('Submit')"
    ]
    
    submit_button = None
    for selector in submit_selectors:
        try:
            if selector.startswith("#") or selector.startswith("."):
                submit_button = driver.find_element(By.CSS_SELECTOR, selector)
            else:
                submit_button = driver.find_element(By.CSS_SELECTOR, selector)
            break
        except:
            continue
    
    if submit_button:
        print("Found the submit button! Clicking now... 🖱️✨")
        submit_button.click()
        
        # Wait for the page to respond
        time.sleep(5)
        
        # Check if we succeeded!
        current_url = driver.current_url
        page_source = driver.page_source.lower()
        
        if "success" in page_source or "thank" in page_source:
            print("🎉🎊 VICTORY! We successfully bypassed reCAPTCHA! 🎊🎉")
        else:
            print("Form submitted! Check the result manually! 👀")
            
    else:
        print("Couldn't find submit button - you might need to click manually! 🤷‍♀️")
        
except Exception as e:
    print(f"Submit error: {e}")
