I want to download the pdf file uploaded to Linkedin using Selenium. So I need to click on this full screen box and then I need to click on download.

But I am getting error NoSuchElementException when I am using the following code:

driver.find_element_by_class_name("artdeco-icon").click()

Please Help how to click on that full screen rectangular box.

Check the full error below :

CodePudding user response：

I noticed that your selector is misspelled. Maybe try correcting that first, and if it still does not work try the code below.

from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By

driver.find_element_by_css_selector(".artdeco-icon").click()

Please make sure that the CSS selector that you use is unique and ready to be selected by the time it gets executed by adding some wait time. You can do it explicitly by importing the time library.

import time

time.sleep(3)
driver.find_element_by_css_selector(".artdeco-icon").click()

CodePudding user response：

You can use below and check the WebDriverWait Here explained very well.

WebDriverWait(driver,20).until(EC.visibility_of_all_elements_located((by_css_selector, ".artdeco-icon"))).click()
