How to see the captcha token depends on whether one of the official apps (Desktop/iOS/Android) is installed. Because in that case the `signalcaptcha://` url scheme is handled by the apps and the captcha cannot be seen directly.

To see the URL you can open the browser developer tools (F12) before completing the captcha.
Hint: Enable the option "Persist Logs" in the "Console Settings" to prevent clearing the console each time navigating to a new page.

### No official app installed - Brave
* Go to: https://signalcaptchas.org/registration/generate.html press F12
* Click on the "Network Tab"
* Within the Network tab, sort on tab: "Name".
* Complete the captcha and click on Verify. If the browser asks: "Open link with" don't do anything with that, just ignore it.
* After clicking "Verify", you should see an entry that starts with:`signal-recaptcha-v2...`. Click on that entry.
If there are multiple, select the lowest/latest one (assuming sort A-Z from top to bottom).
* In the right pane, below headers, it should now show the captcha token that you should enter in the CLI.

* Get the token by right clicking on it and clicking: `copy value`. You can paste that directly into:
```
signal-cli -u $PHONE_NR register --captcha what_you_copied
```
and it will look a bit like:
```
signal-cli -u $PHONE_NR register --captcha signalcaptcha://signal-recaptcha-v2.someshortercode.registration.someverylongcode
```
* Then you should receive an sms with a verification code. Copy only the 6 digits and enter them in the CLI like:
```
signal-cli -a $PHONE_NR verify 123456
```
* That should be it, now you should be able to send a message with:
```
signal-cli -a ACCOUNT send -m "This is a message" ACCOUNT
```
* Note that this will disable the authentication of your phone/main device. If you want to use your phone and signal-cli at the same time, you can follow [these instructions](https://github.com/AsamK/signal-cli/wiki/Linking-other-devices-%28Provisioning%29).
