👨‍💻 Step 2: Python Code for solve Cloudflare Challenge 5s

Here's a Python sample script to accomplish the task:

# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
import requests
import time
import tls_client

# TODO: Your api key
API_KEY = ""
proxy = ""

# TODO: Your target site url:
page_url = ""

        }
    }
    uri = 'https://api.capsolver.com/createTask'
    res = requests.post(uri, json=data)
    resp = res.json()

    if not task_id:
        print("no get taskId:", res.text)
        return
    print('created taskId:', task_id)

    while True:

        if status == "ready":
            print("successfully => ", response.text)

⚠️ Change these variables

• PROXY: Update with your proxy details. The format should be http://username:password@ip:port.
• capsolver.api_key: Obtain your API key from the Capsolver Dashboard.
• PAGE_URL: Replace with the URL of the website for which you wish to solve the CloudFlare challenge.
