[FIXED] Specific sites doesn't render using Selenium (python)

Issue

I've been using selenium with python on both Chrome and Firefox. This specific website stays blank on both browsers when I try to run it with selenium - I'd appreciate any help. Here's my code for chrome:

from selenium import webdriver
    options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
    options.add_experimental_option("useAutomationExtension", False)
    options.add_experimental_option("excludeSwitches",["enable-automation"])
    
    path = r'C:\Program Files (x86)\chromedriver.exe'
    driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path=path, chrome_options=options)
    
    driver.get('https://main.knesset.gov.il/Activity/committees/pages/allcommitteesagenda.aspx')

Solution

Add the argument --disable-blink-features=AutomationControlled

• Code Block:

  options = Options()
  options.add_argument("start-maximized")
  options.add_experimental_option("excludeSwitches", ["enable-automation"])
  options.add_experimental_option('useAutomationExtension', False)
  options.add_argument('--disable-blink-features=AutomationControlled')
  driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path=r'C:\BrowserDrivers\chromedriver.exe', options=options)
  driver.get("https://main.knesset.gov.il/Activity/committees/pages/allcommitteesagenda.aspx")
