Hi, Is it possible to capture the network logs from chrome browser using robot framework? What is the best practice? Will appreciate your assistance .

You can record har files with Robot Framework Browser. See the New Context keyword.

Hi Jani, Thanks for the suggestion. I looked into it and it does look very simple implementation . Is there another library / way to capture the network logs and maybe convert it to json for better msnipulstion to retrieve the data? Thanks again .

HAR format is already JSON, so you can use whatever library/package to process that further. You could use Python’s built-in json package, or something like RPA.JSON , for example.

Hi Jani, Thanks again, Is it possible to capture specific domain or retrieve data from specific call using robot in har file using robot framework? Moshe

Hi! Yes. As already mentioned, the HAR file format is JSON, and you can filter that for the information you need. Here’s an example that gets all the called URLs: tasks.robot: *** Settings *** Library Browser Library RPA.JSON *** Variables *** ${HAR_FILE_PATH}= ${OUTPUT_DI…

Thanks Jani for the elaborate explanation. appreciate your assistance.

Hi @janipalsamaki , I’ve tried your code, there is one point I don’t understand why the result always fail if there is no har.har file or in the other word it fail at the first time. However, har.har file is already created. [Screenshot 2023-08-04 at 12.32.10 AM] Poppy

@oearhp Were you able to solve this issue? I am running into the same problem… Thanks

You Need to Close the Context before Parsing. “Make sure to await context to close for the file to be saved.”
