I want to extract exactly this code it is in a separate div

Solution

The element with the code is within an <iframe> so you have to:

• Induce WebDriverWait for the desired frame to be available and switch to it.

• Induce WebDriverWait for the desired element to be visible.

• You can use either of the following Locator Strategies:

  • Using XPATH and following:

    WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.frame_to_be_available_and_switch_to_it((By.XPATH,"//iframe[@id='ifmail']")))
    print(WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.visibility_of_element_located((By.XPATH, "//div[.='Your code is:']//following::div[1]"))).text)
    

  • Using XPATH and following-sibling:

    WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.frame_to_be_available_and_switch_to_it((By.XPATH,"//iframe[@id='ifmail']")))
    print(WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.visibility_of_element_located((By.XPATH, "//div[.='Your code is:']//following-sibling::div[1]"))).text)
    

• 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

You can find a couple of relevant discussions in:

• Switch to an iframe through Selenium and python

• selenium in python : NoSuchElementException: Message: no such element: Unable to locate element
