How to use authorized proxy with Selenium and Firefox in Python?
Here are the versions used:

• Mozilla Firefox 60.0.1
  
• geckodriver 0.10.0
  
• selenium 3.12.0
  

Here is the code:

from selenium import webdriver

proxy_host = "196.19.8.88"
proxy_port = 8000

fp = webdriver.FirefoxProfile()
fp.set_preference("network.proxy.type", 1)
fp.set_preference("network.proxy.http", proxy_host)
fp.set_preference("network.proxy.http_port", proxy_port)
fp.set_preference("network.proxy.https", proxy_host)
fp.set_preference("network.proxy.https_port", proxy_port)
fp.set_preference("network.proxy.ssl", proxy_host)
fp.set_preference("network.proxy.ssl_port", proxy_port)
fp.set_preference("network.proxy.ftp", proxy_host)
fp.set_preference("network.proxy.ftp_port", proxy_port)
fp.set_preference("network.proxy.socks", proxy_host)
fp.set_preference("network.proxy.socks_port", proxy_port)
fp.update_preferences()

driver = webdriver.Firefox(firefox_profile=fp)
driver.get('http://www.myip.dk/')
print(driver.find_element_by_id('ipv4address').find_element_by_tag_name('p').text)
driver.quit()

It works with a proxy without authorization, but with authorization the following alert pops up:

How to pass authorization?

Answer 1

As a result, I decided to use a service that provides a proxy with binding to ip. That is, the need for authorization simply disappeared

Answer 2

Maybe it's easier to use Chrome? with the right user agent?
will be enough

service_args = [
        '--proxy=192.168.0.1:3128',
        '--proxy-auth=login:pass'
]
