How to Bypass Rotate CAPTCHA Using 2Captcha API

If you've ever been stuck trying to solve a Rotate CAPTCHA during automation tasks, you're not alone. These CAPTCHAs require users to rotate an object to a proper angle—a challenge that can disrupt workflows. Thankfully, with 2Captcha's API, you can bypass this hurdle. In this guide, we’ll walk you through the process step by step, with tips and real-world context to make implementation smoother.


What You’ll Need

  1. A 2Captcha Account: Register at 2Captcha if you haven’t already.
  2. API Key: Available in your 2Captcha dashboard.
  3. Basic Programming Knowledge: Familiarity with making HTTP requests.
  4. Base64 Encoded CAPTCHA Image: The CAPTCHA you want to solve must be in Base64 format.

Pro Tip: If you're new to Base64 encoding, tools like online converters or command-line utilities (e.g., base64) can make the process easy.


Step-by-Step Guide


Step 1: Prepare the Rotate CAPTCHA Parameters

The first step is to get your CAPTCHA image ready and set the necessary parameters for the API request.

  • Encode Your CAPTCHA Image:
    On Linux/macOS, you can use the following command:

    base64 image.jpg > image_base64.txt

    Open image_base64.txt and copy the encoded string for use in the request.

  • Define Task Parameters:

    {
        "type": "RotateTask",
        "body": "BASE64_ENCODED_IMAGE",
        "angle": 60,
        "comment": "Rotate the image to the correct position"
    }
    • type: Always RotateTask for this type of CAPTCHA.
    • body: The Base64-encoded CAPTCHA image.
    • angle: (Optional) Step rotation angle. For example, if the CAPTCHA rotates in 6 steps, set angle to 60 (360/6).
    • comment: (Optional) Add context for workers, e.g., "Rotate until the image is upright."

Real-World Example: If you’re dealing with an e-commerce site CAPTCHA, check its rotation logic (e.g., 45° steps) to set the correct angle parameter.


Step 2: Create the Rotate CAPTCHA Task

To send the CAPTCHA for solving, make a POST request to the createTask endpoint.

Example Request
{
    "clientKey":"YOUR_API_KEY",
    "task": {
        "type": "RotateTask",
        "body": "R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAP///wAAACH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAICRAEAOw==",
        "comment": "position the image properly",
        "angle": 60
    },
    "languagePool": "en"
}

Tip: Make sure your body parameter contains the Base64-encoded image string and your angle matches the CAPTCHA’s rotation logic.

Example Response
{
    "errorId": 0,
    "taskId": "123456789"
}
  • errorId: 0 indicates successful task creation.
  • taskId: Use this ID to query the solution later.

Step 3: Retrieve the Rotate CAPTCHA Solution

Wait a few seconds after creating the task, then check its status using the getTaskResult endpoint.

Endpoint:

https://api.2captcha.com/getTaskResult

Example Request
{
    "clientKey": "YOUR_API_KEY",
    "taskId": "123456789"
}
Possible Responses
  1. Status: Processing

    {
        "errorId": 0,
        "status": "processing"
    }

    The CAPTCHA is still being solved. Wait 3-5 seconds and try again.

  2. Status: Ready

    {
        "errorId": 0,
        "status": "ready",
        "solution": {
            "rotate": 180
        },
        "cost": "0.0005",
        "ip": "1.2.3.4",
        "createTime": 1692863536,
        "endTime": 1692863556,
        "solveCount": 1
    }
    • solution.rotate: The angle required to align the image correctly.
  3. Error: CAPTCHA Unsolvable

    {
        "errorId": 12,
        "errorCode": "ERROR_CAPTCHA_UNSOLVABLE",
        "errorDescription": "Workers could not solve the Captcha"
    }

    If this occurs, double-check your parameters or resend the CAPTCHA.


Step 4: Use the Rotate CAPTCHA Solution

Once you receive the rotate value, integrate it into your interaction with the target website.

Real-World Application

  1. UI Simulation: Send the rotation angle to the target site’s CAPTCHA handler using your automation tool.
  2. Debugging Tips:
    • Use browser developer tools to inspect how the CAPTCHA solution is applied (e.g., via hidden form fields or API calls).
    • Manually test the returned rotate value to ensure it matches expectations.

Common Issues and Troubleshooting

  1. Base64 Encoding Errors:

    • Use tools to validate the Base64 string.
    • Ensure the image size doesn’t exceed 600kB (API limit).
  2. Error: CAPTCHA Unsolvable:

    • Check image clarity and rotation steps.
    • Add detailed comments for workers if the task seems ambiguous.
  3. API Key Issues:

    • Ensure your API key is active and your account has sufficient funds.
  4. Delays:

    • Longer response times may occur during high server loads. Increase polling intervals to 5-10 seconds.

Final Notes

  • Solving Rotate CAPTCHAs with 2Captcha typically takes 5-15 seconds.
  • Providing clear instructions can reduce errors and speed up task completion.
  • Always verify the rotate value before applying it to ensure accuracy.
