Can I Logging In/Register and Access Content Behind Login?
If you need to scrape data from a website that requires login authentication, you can log in or register and access content behind a login. However, due to privacy and legal reasons, we offer limited support for these cases.
Login and registration work like regular forms and can be treated as such. There are two main methods to send forms:
- Send POST requests.
- Fill in and submit a form using JavaScript Instructions.
All requests will return headers, including the session cookies. By using these cookies in subsequent requests, you can operate as a logged-in user. Additionally, you can include a Session ID to maintain the same IP address for up to 10 minutes.
Remember, ZenRows is a scraping tool, not a VPN. If your goal is to log in once and browse the internet with the same IP, you may need a different service.
