Before you start Running the script Video guide

Connecting to Multilogin from multiple devices or servers manually can be time-consuming. To automate this process, you can use the Paramiko library in Python.

In this article, you will learn how to do this using our script example. It iterates through a list of servers, each with its own credentials, and executes connection commands.

Before you start

Ensure your devices or servers are accessible via SSH with password authentication
Install Python and libraries below on each device or server:
1. requests
2. paramiko
Save the script auto.py on your local device
Save the script signinmlx.py on additional devices or servers
Insert your values into the below variables in the script signinmlx.py:
1. USERNAME: your Multilogin X account email
2. PASSWORD: your Multilogin X account password (MD5 encryption is not required)
Insert your values into the below variables in the script auto.py:
1. SERVER-USERNAME
2. SERVER-PASSWORD
3. SERVER-IP

Running the script

The script examples below contain basic setup that allows you to log in to your Multilogin X account on several servers. Additionally, you can:

Add profile actions you want to trigger after sign in using signinmlx.py
Add more commands you want to execute on remote servers using auto.py
Add more servers to the parameter “users_credentials_and_ips” using auto.py

signinmlx.py

import requests
from hashlib import md5

# Input your Multilogin X account credentials
USERNAME = ""
PASSWORD = ""

MLX_BASE = "https://api.multilogin.com"
MLX_LAUNCHER = "https://launcher.mlx.yt:45001/api/v1"
HEADERS = {"Accept": "application/json", "Content-Type": "application/json"}

# Function
def sign_in(username, password):
    # HTTP requests to APIs
    sign_url = "https://api.multilogin.com/user/signin"
    HEADERS = {
        "Accept": "application/json",
        "Content-Type": "application/json",
    }
    Payload = {
        "email": username,
        "password": str(md5(password.encode()).hexdigest()),
    }
    # POST request
    resp = requests.post(sign_url, json=Payload, headers=HEADERS)
    resp_json = resp.json()
    # got bearer token
    token = resp_json["data"]["token"]
    return token

# PART 1
token = sign_in(USERNAME, PASSWORD)
HEADERS["Authorization"] = "Bearer " + token

print("token: " + token, end="")

auto.py

import paramiko

# Define the commands to run
commands = [
    # "mlx &",
    "python3 signinmlx.py"
]

# Define the list of users, passwords, and their corresponding IPs
users_credentials_and_ips = [
    # ("SERVER-USERNAME", "SERVER-PASSWORD", "SERVER-IP"),
    ("SERVER-USERNAME", "SERVER-PASSWORD", "SERVER-IP"),
]

# Iterate over each user, password, and IP
for user, password, ip in users_credentials_and_ips:
    print(f"Connecting to {user}@{ip}")
    try:
        # Connect to the SSH server with password authentication
        ssh_client = paramiko.SSHClient()
        ssh_client.set_missing_host_key_policy(paramiko.AutoAddPolicy())
        ssh_client.connect(hostname=ip, username=user, password=password)

        # Execute each command
        for cmd in commands:
            print(f"Running command: {cmd}")
            stdin, stdout, stderr = ssh_client.exec_command(cmd)
            output = stdout.read().decode("utf-8")
            error = stderr.read().decode("utf-8")
            if output:
                print(output)
            if error:
                print(error)

        # Close the SSH connection
        ssh_client.close()
    except Exception as e:
        print(f"Error connecting to {user}@{ip}: {str(e)}")

In this guide, we show how to run the auto.py and signinmlx.py scripts on a local machine with Windows 10 and a VirtualBox server with Ubuntu 20.
