[FIXED] How to filter on this artifact in the HTML?

Issue

I am using this code and it works:

from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
import sys
import requests
page = requests.get("https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/GOOGL?p=GOOGL")
soup = BeautifulSoup(page.content, 'html.parser')
fin-streamer= soup.find("fin-streamer", class_="Fz(36px)")
print(fin-streamer)
print (fin-streamer.get_text())

It prints this for fin-streamer:

<fin-streamer active="" class="Fw(b) Fz(36px) Mb(-4px) D(ib)" data-field="regularMarketPrice" data-pricehint="2" data-reactid="47" data-symbol="GOOGL" data-test="qsp-price" data-trend="none" value="2897.04">2,897.04</fin-streamer>

What I'd like to do is filter on something more useful than the Fz(36px) class, such as

data-symbol="GOOGL"

but I don't know the syntax for that.

Solution

You can use a dictionary:

fin_streamer = soup.find("fin-streamer", {"data-symbol":"GOOGL"})
