>>>driver = webdriver.Chrome('/usr/bin/chromedriver', options=options)
>>>driver.get('https://temp-mail.org/en/')
>>> elemts = driver.find_element_by_id(id_='mail')
>>> elemts
<selenium.webdriver.remote.webelement.WebElement (session="4bfd1e55807ce38331d70d93b3e9ff94", element="64def6cd-5c1a-4bf0-bf7e-0419718ac256")>
>>>elemts.text
''
Solution

  • If you want to get the value of the email address thats prepopulated by the javascript then just get the value of the input field.

    from selenium import webdriver
options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
driver = webdriver.Chrome()
driver.get('https://temp-mail.org/en/')
elemts = driver.find_element_by_id(id_='mail')
print("Email address:", elemts.get_attribute('value'))

    OUTPUT

    Email address: kokida8790@etcone.net
