CodePudding user response：

You can use this xpath to find your element by xpath:

//ol[@data-list-id="chat-messages"]/li[last()]//div[contains(@class,'messageContent')]

Explaining the xpath

1. //ol[@data-list-id="chat-messages"] --> An ol element with id chat-messages (Which is the list of messages)
2. /li[last()] --> We get the last li element from the previous list (Which is the last message)
3. //div[contains(@class,'messageContent')] --> Inside the previous li we have a div which class contains messageContent which is the element that contains the text.

So, take the text from that element and you should get the latest message.
