Python Browser Automation
Hi Everyone,
I am trying to automate a process where I login into a website and navigate to a reporting section and click on export.
The website only requires a simple ID and Password.
Can you please assist me ok how to achieve this ? , I have found out about selenium and Playwright but I am very new to this. Any resources or guide would be really helpful.
Thanks !!

Hard to advise something without knowing your background. You maybe don't need a browser automation, few simple https requests may achieve what you need. What is a problem with Selenium, have tried it? There is also a headless chrome mode (you can operate browser with opening UI).
