I want to capture the traffic to sites I'm browsing to using Selenium with python and since the traffic will be https using a proxy won't get me far.

My idea was to run phantomJS with selenium to and use phantomJS to execute a script (not on the page using webdriver.execute\_script(), but on phantomJS itself). I was thinking of the netlog.js script (from here <https://github.com/ariya/phantomjs/blob/master/examples/netlog.js>).

Since it works like this in the command line

```
phantomjs --cookies-file=/tmp/foo netlog.js https://google.com

```

there must be a similar way to do this with selenium?

Thanks in advance

**Update:**

Solved it with browsermob-proxy.

```
pip3 install browsermob-proxy

```

Python3 code

```
from selenium import webdriver
from browsermobproxy import Server

server = Server(<path to browsermob-proxy>)
server.start()
proxy = server.create_proxy({'captureHeaders': True, 'captureContent': True, 'captureBinaryContent': True})

service_args = ["--proxy=%s" % proxy.proxy, '--ignore-ssl-errors=yes']
driver = webdriver.PhantomJS(service_args=service_args)

proxy.new_har()
driver.get('https://google.com')
print(proxy.har)  # this is the archive
# for example:
all_requests = [entry['request']['url'] for entry in proxy.har['log']['entries']]

```
