Chrome --headless downloaded files

Post by Rysoulaxe » Wed Sep 23, 2020 5:54 pm

Hi,

Using the "CHROMEDRIVER_OPTIONS=--headless" works fine but does not seem to save the files once downloaded, does anyone know a way round this?
Would be much appreciated.

Thank you

Downloading files in headless mode isn’t currently supported I’m afraid. We are looking into how this might be possible.

Did you know we are now offering affordable monthly subscriptions for Macro Scheduler Standard?
