The Python client base64-encodes js_snippet for you - do not double-encode

Export

If you use the Python client, do not base64-encode js_snippet yourself - the client does it, and double-encoding sends garbage the browser cannot run.

If you use the Python client, do not base64-encode jssnippet yourself - the client does it, and double-encoding sends garbage the browser cannot run. Pass cookies as Cookie objects rather than a raw string, and remember the client defaults to browser on and datacenter proxies; override proxytype when you need residential. Need async? Install the async extra or the async methods do not exist.

Context: scrapingant-client-python README: the client base64-encodes jssnippet automatically, takes cookies as Cookie objects with name and value, and defaults proxytype to datacenter and browser to True. The async variant needs the [async] install extra.
