Question

I\'m trying to login a website for some scraping using Python and requests library, I am trying the following (which doesn\'t work):

Answer 1

Send a POST request with content type = 'form-data':

import requests
files = {
    'username': (None, 'myusername'),
    'password': (None, 'mypassword'),
}
response = requests.post('https://example.com/abc', files=files)
