Current state of solving IS24 bot detection has identified our script as a bot - we've been blocked

[robertszooba]

This is not the first issue regarding this error. However, browsing through various threads, I am unable to abstract a specific step-by-step guide to solve this problem. Therefore, I would like to ask what needs to be done to circumvent the bot detection.
The relevant parts of my config.yaml are:

loop:
  active: yes
  sleeping_time: 600

captcha:
  imagetyperz:
    token: ABC
  driver_arguments:
    - "--headless"

immoscout_cookie: abc

Hi @robertszooba, Thanks for the report. I guess the reason you don't see a step by step guide is that we don't really know exactly how to bypass the detection. It is certainly necessary to have captcha support setup. For the `driver_arguments`, the "default" set is: ``` "--no-sandbox", "--headless", "--disable-gpu", "--remote-debugging-port=9222", "--disable-dev-shm-usage", "--window-size=1024,768" ``` But different people have different results on different platforms. How the IS24 blocking specifically works is kept secret for obvious reasons, and the flathunter software does its best to emulate a real user-driven browser. Besides that I don't really know what to recommend. If you have been making a lot of requests, it might just be that your IP address has been flagged as bad - are you able to browse the site manually in a private window? If manual browsing works, you can try and compare the requests that your browser makes with the the requests the flathunter makes. If you remove the --headless argument, you will be able to interact with the automatic browser, and that might give you some clues. Hope that helps - maybe other users also have tips.
