I am trying to login to a site having captcha using requests module.
import requests
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
url="http://somesite.com"
with requests.Session() as s:
r = s.get(URL, headers=headers)
soup = BeautifulSoup(r.content, features="html.parser")
CaptchaImgURL = 'https://somesite.com/image.axd?uid=49a9ca-3a3e-40e7'
r = requests.get(CapImgURL)
open('ImageVerify.jpg', 'wb').write(r.content)
login_details['username']=user
login_details['passwd']=pwd
login_details['txtImgVerifyCode']=input('Enter Code: ')
login_details['button']='Log in'
r = s.post(URL, data=login_details , headers=LoginHeaders)
Here I am fetching login page first and then saving captcha image in a separate url request from CaptchaImgURL. But I get invalid captcha code while log in.
The captcha image in the same CaptchaImgURL changes everytime when I make a request.
How can I fetch the captcha image when I make request to fetch login page for the first time ?

Earlier I was making direct request for captcha image without using the logged in session requests.Session()
i.e. s.
So after making request using requests.Session()
i.e. s. It worked fine.
r = s.get(CapImgURL, headers=headers)
