can I ask what you use selenium for?

i'm getting latest job from upwork and sending it to my discord server

Brody•16mo ago

I'm sorry but that would count as web scraping, and that would break railways tos. you will want to be using upwork's official api

Sheikh SatoruOP•16mo ago

that requires a callback url i don't have one it's just a bot

Brody•16mo ago

you can absolutely have a callback url the bot can run a simple web server and you can use the railway generated domain as the callback and for local development you could use a solution like ngrok
