I'm trying to login to a website with a Python script using the requests library, but I keep getting a 405 error and I'm lost on why I'm getting it.
import requests
payload = {
'guid': 'xxxxx',
'password': "xxxx"
}
head = {'Host': 'www.blockchain.com',
'Connection': 'keep-alive',
'User-Agent': 'Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/62.0.3202.94 Safari/537.36',
'Upgrade-Insecure-Requests': '1',
'Accept': 'text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,image/webp,image/apng,*/*;q=0.8',
'Accept-Encoding': 'gzip, deflate, br',
'Accept-Language': 'en-US,en;q=0.9'
}
#This URL will be the URL that your login form points to with the "action" tag.
url_address = 'https://login.blockchain.com/#/login'
with requests.Session() as session:
post = session.post(url_address, data=payload, headers = head, allow_redirects=True)
print(f'{post}')
I checked the form and the names of the inputfield seem to be correct as well.
What am I doing wrong in my code?
