GeeTest

GeeTestCaptcha Example
GeeTestCaptcha Example

Your application should send the site address, public domain key (gt) and key (challenge).

The result of solving the task is three or five tokens for form submission.

Attention!

CapMonster Cloud uses built-in proxies by default — their cost is already included in the service. You only need to specify your own proxies in cases where the website does not accept the token or access to the built-in services is restricted.

Proxies with IP authorization are not yet supported.

info
  • The gt, challenge and geetestApiServerSubdomain parameters are most often found inside the initGeetest JavaScript function.
  • Also you can see in the HTML code of the page. You can find it in the <sсript> block, which appears after the page is fully loaded in the browser.

V4 (captcha_id = gt)


GeeTest V3

Possible captcha variants

Request parameters

type<string>required

GeeTestTask


websiteURL<string>required

Address of the page on which the captcha is solved. The correct Url is always passed to Referer on the request https://api-na.geetest.com/gettype.php? For example: We are at https://example.com#login, but we see that the captcha is not actually initialised there, but at https://example.com.


gt<string>required

The GeeTest identifier key gt for the domain. Static value, rarely updated.


challenge<string>required only for V3

A dynamic key.
Each time our API is called, we need to get a new key value. If the captcha is loaded on the page, then the challenge value is no longer valid and you will get the error ERROR_TOKEN_EXPIRED.
You will be charged for tasks with ERROR_TOKEN_EXPIRED error. It is necessary to examine the requests and find the one in which this value is returned and, before each creation of the recognition task, execute this request and parse the challenge from it.


version<integer>required only for V4

3


geetestApiServerSubdomain<string>optional

Geetest API subdomain server (must be different from api.geetest.com).
Optional parameter. May be required for some sites.


geetestGetLib<string>optional

Path to the captcha script to display it on the page.
Optional parameter. May be required for some sites.
Send JSON as a string.


proxyType<string>optional

http - regular http/https proxy;
https - try this option only if "http" doesn't work (required for some custom proxies);
socks4 - socks4 proxy;
socks5 - socks5 proxy.


proxyAddress<string>optional

IPv4/IPv6 proxy IP address. Not allowed:

  • using transparent proxies (where you can see the client's IP);
  • using proxies on local machines.


proxyPort<integer>optional

Proxy port.


proxyLogin<string>optional

Proxy-server login.


proxyPassword<string>optional

Proxy-server password.


userAgent<string>optional

Browser User-Agent.

Pass only a valid UA from Windows OS. Currently it is: userAgentPlaceholder

How to find all required parameters for task creation

Manually

  1. Open your website where the captcha appears in the browser.
  2. Right-click on the captcha element and select Inspect.

All parameters can be found in init-params among the requests:

paramsv3

Automatically

To automate parameter extraction, you can retrieve them via a browser (regular or headless, e.g., using Playwright) or directly from HTTP requests. Since dynamic parameter values are short-lived, it is recommended to use them immediately after retrieval.

Important!

The provided code snippets are basic examples for learning how to extract the required parameters. The exact implementation will depend on your captcha page, its structure, and the HTML elements and selectors used.

Automatically

A convenient way to automate the search for all necessary parameters. Some parameters are regenerated every time the page loads, so you'll need to extract them through a browser — either regular or headless (e.g., using Playwright). Since the values of dynamic parameters are short-lived, the captcha must be solved immediately after retrieving them.

Important!

Features of the GeeTest solution on app.gal**.com

Attention!

This section is relevant **only for the GeeTest captcha on the app.gal**.com site**. These values should not be used for other sites.

When to use the challenge field?

For the app.gal**.com site, you need to specify the value of the challenge field depending on the action being performed. If this field is not specified, the default value **AddTypedCredentialItems** is used, but this does not suit all scenarios.

List of possible challenge values:

Action on app.gal**.com sitechallenge Value
Sending an email codeSendEmailCode
Confirming an action (e.g., login)SendVerifyCode
Claiming a rewardClaimUserTask
Opening a mystery boxOpenMysteryBox
Purchasing in GGShopBuyGGShop
Preparing to buy raffle ticketsPrepareBuyGGRaffleTickets
Adding credentialsAddTypedCredentialItems
Creating a report ticketCreateReportTicket
Participating in an activityPrepareParticipate
Updating credential dataRefreshCredentialValue
Synchronizing dataSyncCredentialValue
Social loginGetSocialAuthUrl

The challenge value must match the operationName visible in the network requests (Network tab) via DevTools.

Task submission example
{
"type": "GeeTestTaskProxyless",
"websiteURL": "https://app.gal**.com/accountSetting/social",
"gt": "244bcb8b9846215df5af4c624a750db4",
"challenge": "SendVerifyCode"
}

Note: The GT key for gal**.com is always 244bcb8b9846215df5af4c624a750db4. You can leave this value as the default.

The encryptedData field on the site side is usually empty, as the client logic ignores it. Although the value is returned via WebAssembly, in practice it is not used.
