Blue card Berlin – Termin script automation for Ausländerbehörde

Script for automation of getting a termin / booking on https://otv.verwalt-berlin.de

Script doesn't book anything for you - it just helps to find an open slot by attempting to register every 2 min and leaves the browser open so you can continue the process in the same window.

You will receive a notification when you have a possible hit so it's probably good idea to allow notification in system settings. Also telegram notifications are available but you need to setup keys on your own unfortunately.

Setup

1. Install local packages npm i
2. If you have problems with chromedriver, try to install it in the system brew install --cask chromedriver

Config

Create .env file from .env.example and fill variables you want script to run with. Values there are text representation of select options on a website.

Run

To run execute: npm start

There are can be a lot of false positives, that's why you need to keep an eye on console to check why execution stopped and restart again if needed.

It should send 2 type of notifications when program terminates:

• the one when unexpected error happens
• the other one is possible success

Donate

If you had any luck with finding a slot using this script – feel free to donate me. I appreciate any help!

Current stats:

• found slots for 3 families
• average time to find a slot: 2 days
• donations: $0.00
