Try to change the first line to:

${options}=  Evaluate  sys.modules['selenium.webdriver'].ChromeOptions()  sys

You can disable them using DesiredCapabilities . In this geolocation case, you should use disable-geolocation option.

I have the same problem, I am not able to allow the notifications. This part: Call Method ${options} add_argument --disable-notifications only kind of hide the notification window but doesn’t take the allow action.
Could anyone else help more with this topic?

I hope this is not too late. To fix this problem just add this line to your chrome options:

Call Method ${options} add_argument --use-fake-ui-for-media-stream
This will fix your issue :wink:

Hello,
Did you ever find a solution for this?

I’m also experiencing this same problem and none of the above helped to resolve, the darn pop up for allow notifications comes up. Now in talks with our IT engineers on trying to turn that off on my system for any browsers since I’m doing the test automation.

Hi,

you can do the following:

${options}=    Evaluate    sys.modules['selenium.webdriver'].ChromeOptions()    sys

${prefs}=    Create Dictionary    profile.default_content_setting_values.notifications=2

Call Method    ${options}    add_experimental_option    prefs    ${prefs}

Open Browser    ${URL}    ${BROWSER}    options=${options}

With profile.default_content_setting_values.notifications=2 you disable all notifications, with 1 you can enable them.
