I was planning on creating a basic web scraper for the site Sneakersnstuff.com however my efforts were stopped early due to an error. When requesting to the url https://www.sneakersnstuff.com/, rather than displaying the html of the website, or even the entrance captcha, I am redirected to a cloudflare page with the error message "enable cookies". Both my code and the response are shown below

import requests
import cfscrape


session = requests.session()

response = session.get('https://www.sneakersnstuff.com/')

print(response.headers)

</html>

I have attempted using a library reccomend by many called cfscrape to no avail.

  • When using requests, I solved the issue for me by providing a user agent in the headers that is supported. Before I used a user agent that caused problem. Now I changed it to Mozilla (https://stackoverflow.com/questions/10606133/sending-user-agent-using-requests-library-in-python) which works. Unfortunately, the response messages were not really helpful to find out what the issue was. – clel Nov 19 '21 at 10:13

Adding Browser/User-Agent Filtering to cloudscraper did the trick for me.

import cloudscraper
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup

# Adding Browser / User-Agent Filtering should help ie. 

# will give you only desktop firefox User-Agents on Windows
scraper = cloudscraper.create_scraper(browser={'browser': 'firefox','platform': 'windows','mobile': False})

html = scraper.get("https://www.sneakersnstuff.com/").content

soup = BeautifulSoup(html, 'html.parser')

print(soup)

import cloudscraper
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup

scraper = cloudscraper.create_scraper()

html = scraper.get("https://www.sneakersnstuff.com/").content

soup = BeautifulSoup(html, 'html.parser')

print(soup)

Output:

cloudscraper.exceptions.CloudflareReCaptchaProvider: Cloudflare reCaptcha detected, unfortunately you haven't loaded an anti reCaptcha provider correctly via the 'recaptcha' parameter.

Next Step ?
