The Captcha node solves one captcha at this point in the run. It runs the platform’s solver for the named captcha whether or not the workflow’s automatic captcha solving is on, so it is the way to say “solve here” when automatic solving is off, or when a captcha must be cleared at one specific step, such as right before a submit that only enables once the widget passes. See Workflow Settings for the automatic solving setting.

Parameters

Examples

Turnstile before a submit

reCAPTCHA v2

hCaptcha after the site’s own checkbox

Some sites show their own “I am not a robot” checkbox and open the hCaptcha challenge when it is ticked. Click that checkbox first, then solve:

Notes

  • If no captcha of that type is on the page, the node passes and the run continues
  • If the captcha is present and cannot be solved, the node fails with error code CAPTCHA-E0001, so the workflow’s error-code actions (retry, alert, pause) apply
  • With automatic captcha solving on, the node is a fast no-op once the captcha is already solved
  • Detection finds the widget’s iframe or container in the top page only. A captcha on a page embedded in another iframe is not detected, and the node passes as if no captcha were present
  • reCAPTCHA v2 is solved by a third-party solver on the worker
  • hCaptcha is solved by CloudCruise’s own solver. When hCaptcha is on the page but no challenge is showing yet, the node waits up to 15 seconds for one to open, and passes as soon as the widget has a token
  • Automatic captcha solving only acts on an hCaptcha challenge that is already open when a step starts. If a site opens hCaptcha from its own checkbox or button, put a Captcha node right after that click
