I am tring to access an element inside this iframe:
I tried to use switch_to.frame(0)
first, but still can not locate the element inside the frame.
Screenshot of the error:
CodePudding user response:
You should switch to the frame:
driver.switch_to.frame(driver.find_element_by_tag_name("iframe"))
CodePudding user response:
As the element is within an <iframe>
so you have to:
Induce WebDriverWait for the desired frame to be available and switch to it.
You can use either of the following Locator Strategies:
Using CSS_SELECTOR:
WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.frame_to_be_available_and_switch_to_it((By.CSS_SELECTOR,"iframe[title='To Do Assignments in Connect'][src='https://connect.mheducation.com/paamweb/index.html#/access/home']")))
Using XPATH:
WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.frame_to_be_available_and_switch_to_it((By.XPATH,"//iframe[@title='To Do Assignments in Connect' and @src='https://connect.mheducation.com/paamweb/index.html#/access/home']")))
Note : You have to add the following imports :
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
