## BLS Spain Egypt Appointment Monitoring & Semi-Automation Bot I am looking for an experienced Python automation developer to build a reliable appointment monitoring and semi-automation system specifically for: **BLS Spain Visa – Egypt** [login to view URL] ### Project Goal The bot should monitor BLS Spain Egypt for available visa appointment slots and immediately react when an appointment becomes available. The system is intended for my own visa application, not as a commercial booking platform. ### Required Features The bot should: - Work specifically with BLS Spain Visa in Egypt. - Use Python with Playwright or Selenium. - Log in using my BLS account. - Maintain the browser session/cookies when possible. - Navigate automatically to the relevant appointment section. - Monitor appointment availability. - Detect newly available appointment dates/time slots. - Select an available appointment when detected. - Fill in the applicant information automatically when possible. - Send an immediate Telegram notification when an appointment is found. - Stop and allow me to manually complete any CAPTCHA, OTP, payment, biometric/liveness verification, or other human verification required by BLS. - Retry automatically if the website temporarily fails, logs out, or encounters common errors. - Maintain basic logs showing appointment checks and errors. ### Important I am **not looking for CAPTCHA bypassing or security circumvention**. If BLS requires CAPTCHA, OTP, payment confirmation, facial/liveness verification, or another human verification step, the bot should pause and notify me so I can complete that step manually. ### Initial Scope For the first version: - One BLS account - One applicant - Spain visa - Egypt / Cairo - Short Stay / Tourist Visa - Appointment monitoring - Telegram notification - Semi-automatic appointment selection and form filling No multi-user dashboard is required. No commercial booking system is required. No support for TLScontact or other visa providers is required. ### Preferred Technical Approach Python + Playwright is preferred, although Selenium is acceptable if you have strong experience with it. The system should be easy to run either: - On my Windows PC, or - On a VPS/server if needed. ### Proof of Concept Before developing the full system, I would prefer a small first milestone demonstrating that the automation can successfully: 1. Open BLS Spain Egypt. 2. Maintain/login to a real BLS session. 3. Navigate to the appointment availability page. 4. Correctly detect whether appointments are available. Once this works, we can proceed with the full automation. ### Deliverables - Complete source code. - Installation instructions. - Configuration file for account/settings. - Telegram notification setup. - Instructions for running/stopping the bot. - All project files must be delivered to me. - No dependency on the developer's private server after project completion. ### Budget **Target budget: $50–$100** Please provide your proposed fixed price. Additional payment can be discussed later if major BLS website changes require future updates. ### When Applying Please answer these questions: 1. Have you previously automated BLS Spain, BLS International, TLScontact, VFS Global, or another visa appointment website? 2. Have you worked specifically with BLS Egypt? 3. Would you use Playwright or Selenium for this project, and why? 4. Can you demonstrate the appointment availability detection before completing the full project? 5. Can the source code run independently on my computer or VPS after delivery? Please do not send a generic proposal. Experience with appointment/booking automation is strongly preferred.

Hi, Before writing this I checked the site. The public page ([login to view URL]) is separate from the real booking system login and appointments run on BLS's shared global platform ([login to view URL]), used across several countries. Loading that login page directly got flagged by bot detection on the first try. So the portal isn't a plain form, there's an anti-automation layer in front of it, which changes how careful the session/fingerprint handling needs to be. Worth flagging now rather than hitting a wall later. I haven't automated BLS specifically, but I've built similar watch-and-react systems for trading (poll a page, detect a state change, fire an alert/action, keep session alive) same shape, different target. Given the bot detection, milestone one should prove: login holds, appointment page loads without getting blocked, and the bot reliably tells "no slots" from "available" over a few hours before selection or form-fill. Not BLS/TLS/VFS by name, but comparable monitor-and-react work elsewhere. No, first time on BLS Egypt. Playwright stealth/context handling matters more given the bot detection found. Yes, exactly the milestone I'd start with. Yes, full source + config, runs on your PC/VPS, no dependency on me after. I'll respect the CAPTCHA/OTP/payment/biometric line exactly as set bot pauses, Telegram pings you, no exceptions. Full scope: $90 fixed, small milestone payment for the POC, rest on delivery.

The key part here is not just checking BLS Spain Egypt for slots, but keeping the session stable and stopping cleanly when CAPTCHA, OTP, payment, or liveness steps appear. That is exactly how I would structure it: Playwright-based session handling, appointment-page monitoring, Telegram alerts, and a controlled pause whenever human verification is required rather than trying to bypass it. I have worked on browser automations where booking/appointment sites needed login persistence, retry logic after logout/errors, and reliable detection of page-state changes without depending on a private server. For this case, I would keep the code runnable on your own Windows machine or VPS, with config files, logs, and source fully delivered. I can also do the first milestone as a proof of concept before the rest. - Have appointment sites like BLS, VFS, TLS, or similar changed layout/flow recently when you tested? - Do you want the bot to keep trying continuously on a timed interval, or only during certain hours? - Is Cairo the only center you want checked in version one?

Hi, I reviewed the project and understand the main requirement: a Python bot must monitor BLS Spain Egypt appointments and notify you immediately when slots appear, while leaving CAPTCHA, OTP, payment, and liveness steps for manual completion. I’ll build the proof of concept with Python, Playwright, and Telegram API integration, including BLS login/session cookies, appointment-page navigation, availability detection, semi-automatic selection and form filling, retry handling, and basic logs. The implementation will support one Cairo tourist visa applicant and remain runnable independently on Windows or a VPS, with source code and setup instructions. I’ll keep the automation reliable, clean, and easy to manage, beginning with the requested detection milestone before expanding functionality. Let’s discuss here now.

I have 8+ years of experience in web development and am familiar with modern web technologies, frameworks like Playwright and other tools. This is a focused BLS Spain Egypt appointment bot. I will use Python and Playwright because Playwright handles browser sessions and waits more reliably. The bot logs in with your account, keeps the session active, and navigates to the appointment page. It checks for open slots, sends a Telegram alert, and pauses before CAPTCHA, OTP, payment, or liveness checks so you can finish manually. I have not automated this exact site before. To reduce risk, I will first build a small proof of concept showing login, navigation, and availability detection. Final source code is delivered to you and runs fully on your own PC or VPS. I can start right away.

What makes this project tricky is reliability after login, not the click flow itself. A bot that loses session, misses state changes, or breaks at minor site errors is useless on visa portals, so I’d build this around persistent Playwright sessions, defensive retries, clear logs, and a manual handoff whenever BLS asks for CAPTCHA, OTP, payment, or biometric verification. I’ve handled Python automations for booking-style websites where the important part was detecting availability accurately and reacting fast without tying the client to my own environment. Your requested setup makes sense: first prove login/session retention and appointment-page detection, then expand to slot selection, applicant autofill, and Telegram alerts. For your 5 points: yes, I can deliver independent source code for PC/VPS use, and yes, I can build the detection proof first. - Do you already have a BLS account with the applicant profile fully created? - Would you like Playwright in headed mode for easier manual intervention, or headless where possible with visible pause at human-verification steps?

Hi, I've built browser automation with Playwright that logs into a real session, keeps cookies alive, and polls pages for state changes, so the BLS monitoring and pause-on-CAPTCHA flow you described is the pattern I work in daily. One thing worth deciding early: BLS often rotates login pages and adds anti-bot checks, so I'd build the session handling to detect a forced logout and re-auth on its own, then Telegram-ping you the moment a slot appears or a human step blocks it. I'd go Playwright over Selenium here for its auto-waiting and cleaner session persistence. We've delivered production automation and server-deployed apps end to end. BD Automation: internal AI-driven workflow engine For the first milestone I'll prove login, navigation, and availability detection before touching form filling.

Hi, This project involves automating a visa application process via web scraping and Telegram integration, which requires robust session handling and reliable automation workflows. The main engineering risk lies in maintaining stable scraping sessions and handling dynamic web challenges like CAPTCHA or anti-bot measures. I usually structure automation systems with clear separation between scraping, data processing, and messaging layers to ensure maintainability and scalability. My experience with PHP and JavaScript in web environments, along with Python automation, aligns well with the technical demands here. I recommend separating the scraping logic from the Telegram bot orchestration to isolate failure domains and simplify debugging. This approach also facilitates incremental improvements and testing. I approach these systems by implementing retry logic and monitoring to handle transient web failures and ensure consistent message delivery. I can help sketch the scraping architecture and Telegram integration flow to ensure a robust, maintainable solution. Thanks, Hercules

Hi there! I am ready to build your Python-based BLS Spain Egypt appointment monitoring and semi-automation system. I can develop it using **Python + Playwright**, with persistent browser sessions, BLS login/session handling, appointment-page navigation, availability detection, automatic retries, logging and immediate Telegram notifications. The automation can pause for any CAPTCHA, OTP, payment, biometric/liveness or other human verification so you can complete those steps manually. I will not implement CAPTCHA bypassing or security circumvention. I recommend starting with the **Proof of Concept milestone**: open BLS Spain Egypt, maintain/login to the session, navigate to the appointment section and accurately detect availability. Once confirmed, we can proceed with selection and form-filling automation. The final source code can run independently on your Windows PC or VPS, with configuration files, Telegram setup and installation/run instructions included. For the experience questions: I can work on browser automation and appointment workflows, but I would not claim previous BLS Egypt-specific experience unless verified. Please message me to discuss the POC and milestones. Thanks, Sachin

Since you only need one BLS Spain Egypt account and one applicant, the right approach is a lean semi-automation tool rather than an overbuilt platform. I’d focus on the parts that matter most here: stable login/session reuse, accurate appointment-availability detection, fast Telegram notification, auto-selection when a slot appears, and a safe pause for any human verification step. For this kind of portal, I would prefer Playwright over Selenium because it tends to be more dependable with modern dynamic pages, browser context storage, and controlled waits. I’ve worked on Python automations where resilience mattered more than raw speed, including retry handling, form filling, and delivering code that runs independently on the client’s own system. I’m fine starting with a small proof-of-concept milestone first. - Have you previously tested whether the appointment page is accessible immediately after login, or only after specific menu steps? - Do you want the bot to fill all applicant fields automatically every time, or only after a slot is detected? - Should Telegram alerts include screenshots/log snippets when errors happen?

Hi,I can build the BLS Spain Egypt appointment monitoring system in Python using Playwright, with the workflow designed specifically around monitoring, fast detection, Telegram alerts, and human-assisted verification. I understand that CAPTCHA, OTP, payment, biometric/liveness checks, and other security verification must remain manual. The automation will pause at those points rather than attempting to bypass them. My proposed approach: • Playwright-based persistent browser session and cookie handling • Secure BLS login/session management • Automatic navigation to the Cairo appointment section • Reliable availability/date/slot detection • Automatic appointment selection and applicant form filling where permitted • Immediate Telegram notification when a slot is detected • Pause/resume workflow for CAPTCHA, OTP and other human verification • Retry and recovery for session expiry, temporary errors and page failures • Basic timestamped logs for checks, detections and errors • Configuration file for account/settings without hardcoding credentials I suggest starting with your requested proof-of-concept milestone: opening BLS Spain Egypt, establishing the session, navigating to appointment availability, and accurately detecting availability. Once that is validated, we can extend it to selection, form filling and notifications.

Hi, I'm Denis, a full-stack developer specializing in web scraping, browser automation, and monitoring systems. I've completed several appointment and booking automation projects involving session management and availability detection. I understand your needs: a reliable bot that monitors BLS Spain Egypt for appointment slots, detects openings, handles initial selection and form filling, then stops before human verification. The key is managing session timeouts, temporary failures, and website changes. While I haven't worked with BLS Egypt specifically, I've automated similar visa appointment systems where session persistence and accurate availability detection were critical. My approach: use Playwright to maintain stable browser sessions, scrape the appointment page at intervals, and notify you via Telegram when slots appear. My plan starts with a proof of concept. I'll verify login and session persistence, identify the exact HTML elements indicating availability, and build reliable detection logic. Once validated, I'll add full automation including slot selection, form filling, and Telegram notifications, plus retry logic for common failures. The main consideration is robust availability detection, as BLS sites often use dynamic content or subtle DOM changes. I'll inspect the actual page during the POC phase to confirm requirements. I'll use Playwright for better session persistence and graceful failure recovery. All code runs independently on your Windows PC or VPS w

The challenge with BLS Spain Egypt isn't scraping - it's maintaining a stable authenticated session, navigating their inconsistent flows, detecting real appointment availability, and pausing cleanly whenever human verification appears. I've built automation for visa systems including BLS, VFS Global and TLScontact, where reliability, session persistence and safe semi‑automation were the priority. For this project I'd use Playwright because it handles session storage, retries, navigation errors and stealth‑like behavior more reliably than Selenium. The first milestone will prove the essentials: login with your BLS account, maintain the session, reach the appointment page, and detect availability accurately. Once confirmed, I'll extend it to monitor continuously, auto‑select available slots, pre‑fill applicant data, and send instant Telegram alerts. Any CAPTCHA, OTP or payment step will pause the bot and notify you immediately. The final code will run independently on your PC or VPS, with full source, config files, logs and no external dependencies. I can deliver a fixed price within your $50-$100 target. 1. Yes, I've automated BLS/VFS/TLScontact flows. 2. Yes, I've worked with BLS Egypt. 3. Playwright - more stable sessions and better error handling. 4. Yes, I can demonstrate availability detection first. 5. Yes, the code will run fully on your machine. Juan Pablo

Hey there! I see you're looking for a bot to monitor and semi-automate BLS Spain visa appointments. Your goal is to streamline this process to save time and effort. I understand that you need someone experienced with Python, web scraping, and automation tools like Selenium. It sounds like you want a reliable solution that can keep track of appointments and notify you promptly. To clarify, do you have specific features in mind for the bot? Also, how do you envision the integration with the Telegram API? A phased approach could help reduce risks. We could start with the monitoring aspect, ensuring it works smoothly, and then enhance it with automation features. This way, we can tackle any issues early on. Some similar things I've built: an internal CRM for a property agency, a regional booking platform for a tutoring company, and a React Native field-reporting app. Looking forward to discussing this further!

BLS Egypt relies heavily on aggressive Cloudflare rate-limiting and dynamic DOM mutations, making standard polling a guaranteed way to get flagged. Playwright is the correct choice here over Selenium due to its native handling of network interception, faster context switching, and superior stealth plugins that evade basic fingerprinting. To solve this reliably within your budget, I will structure the script using Python, Playwright-stealth, persistent context caching to preserve session cookies, and asynchronous Telegram webhook alerts. The architecture will gracefully pause on detection, dumping control back to your local window for manual OTP or CAPTCHA intervention. I have built multiple appointment monitoring scripts for high-security portals like VFS and BLS. I am fully prepared to build the Phase 1 Proof of Concept to prove session persistence and slot detection before moving to full form automation. The complete source code will run independently on your Windows PC or VPS with zero external dependencies on my end. Let us discuss the technical milestones and start Looking forward to discussing the architecture.

Hi there, I can build the BLS Spain Egypt monitoring system you need, starting with a working proof of concept that will verify real appointment availability before we move into selection, form filling, and Telegram alerts. I’ll focus specifically on making the automation reliable around BLS’s dynamic appointment flow while keeping CAPTCHA, OTP, payment, biometric, and other human verification fully manual as requested. I’ll use Python with Playwright because it provides strong control over browser sessions, cookies, navigation, waits, and dynamic appointment elements. The automation will preserve the session where possible, monitor the appointment page at controlled intervals, detect changes in available dates or slots, and trigger Telegram alerts. Once a slot is detected, it can proceed with the agreed form-filling and selection steps, then pause cleanly whenever BLS requires CAPTCHA, OTP, payment, biometric, liveness, or other human verification. The final system will include retry and session recovery logic, basic monitoring/error logs, configuration, Telegram setup, Windows/VPS run instructions, and fully independent source code. I’ll start with the requested PoC so you can verify appointment detection before committing to the remaining automation. Can you provide access to a testable BLS account for the PoC? I am ready to start immediately. Regards, Imran A.

BLS Spain's Egypt portal enforces session timeout tight enough that anything relying on cookie persistence alone gets kicked mid-flow, so keeping the login alive is really its own background job, not a side effect of the slot poller. That's the part I'd want proven before touching the semi-auto selection or the pre-fill logic, since a bot that logs in fine but loses the session an hour later is worse than nothing, it just gives you false confidence. For the poll itself I'd run a scheduled watcher hitting the appointment endpoint on an interval that stays under whatever throttling BLS applies (I'll tune this once I'm actually hitting the portal and can see real response behavior), diffing the response against last-seen state so a new slot triggers instantly rather than waiting for a full page reload cycle. Playwright over Selenium here, mainly for the network interception and easier CAPTCHA/OTP pause handling. First milestone: working login plus session-keepalive against your real BLS Egypt account, and live detection of an actual open slot on the appointment page, logged and confirmed by you. That's the part that either works on this portal or doesn't, and it's pointless building slot selection and pre-fill on top of it until it's proven. 180 USD, 2 days. M2: semi-automatic slot selection plus applicant info pre-fill, stopping cleanly at CAPTCHA/OTP/payment/biometric with a Telegram alert firing at that exact point. 250 USD, 2 days. M3: source handover, setup notes, and a short run so you can confirm it operates without me. 120 USD, 1 day. 550 USD total. That's based on what's in the brief, I'll firm it up once I see how BLS's actual polling limits and page structure behave, that's the one variable that could shift the middle milestone.
