Authentication doesn't work with scripting

Support
1

I need a help regarding authenticating users via login page.

I am trying to login user and then navigating to the my/account page where user can see his/her account information. Below are the steps I am following which are the same as I am browsing the site.

[list=1]
[]navigate to the login screen
[]Fill username and password
[]Submit the login form
[]navigate to my/account page
[/list]

Below is the script I am using.

[color=#0000CD][size=small]logData 0

// bring up the login screen
navigate Sign In or Sign Up | Chegg.com

logData 1

// log in
setValue name=email someone@example.com
setValue name=password MY_PASSWORD
submitForm name=login-form

navigate Sign In or Sign Up | Chegg.com

Tab characters are there in the script but somehow they not appearing correctly. Also I am using a legit username/password that works on the site. The issue I am seeing is upon navigating user to my/account page somehow the authentication didn’t happen on the first step so it will redirect user back to the login screen. The same username/password works when I try them on the actual site.

Any help is appreciated.

I tend to use exec and execAndWait for login forms these days, so something like this should work bu I’ve not tested it:


logData	0

// bring up the login screen
navigate	https://www.chegg.com/auth?action=login

logData	1

// log in
exec document.getElementByName("email")[0].value = "someone@example.com"
exec document.getElementByName("password")[0].value = "password"
execAndWait document.getElementByName("login-form")[0].click()

navigate	https://www.chegg.com/my/account

Thanks Andy!

I tried that as well but no luck. I switched the site considering there is something wrong with the previous site but even with Twitter I am not able to login.

[color=#9400D3][size=small]navigate https://twitter.com

ignoreErrors 1

exec document.getElementById(‘signin-email’).value = ‘username’
exec document.getElementById('signin-password).value = ‘password’
execAndWait document.getElementsByClassName(‘submit’)[0].click()

navigate https://twitter.com/settings/account[/size][/color]

Is anyone else faced this issue? What am I doing wrong?
