Copy xml content from webpage and save to locally without special characters

[snippsat]

I did login to server to do a quick test.
The problem i get when try to download .xml with Request,
is that when Selenium has a session cookies that do not automatically goes over to Requests if try to download.
Then can do like this to transfer session cookie over to Requests.

session = requests.Session()
selenium_cookies = driver.get_cookies()
# Add each Selenium cookie to the Requests Session
for cookie in selenium_cookies:
    session.cookies.set(cookie['name'], cookie['value'])

print(driver.current_url) # This most be a url with .xml ending
response = session.get(driver.current_url)
with open('test1.xml', 'wb') as file:
    file.write(response.content)
