Encountering errors using Python Selenium's expected_conditions (EC) for iCloud login automation. Difficulty finding iframe elements and sending keys

Question

I have tried to automatically write login and password icloud.com

Right now I am succesfull click Sign In button. Next I switch to iframe. But can't find element for send.keys(write login, password)

Always have error like this - TypeError: WebDriver.find_element() takes from 1 to 3 positional arguments but 6 were given If I try to find element By.ID or CLASS_NAME without WebDriverWait - Always error can't find element

enter image description here enter image description here

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC

driver = webdriver.Chrome
driver.get("https://www.icloud.com")
btn_log_in = driver.find_element(By.CLASS_NAME, "sign-in-button")
btn_log_in.click()


iframe = driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "//div[@class='home-login-component']//iframe[@id='aid-auth-widget-iFrame']")
driver.switch_to.frame(iframe)


sign_in = WebDriverWait(driver, 30).until(EC.text_to_be_present_in_element(By.XPATH, "//span[@id=' apple_id_field_label']"))
sign_in.send_keys('12345678')

Help please, I can't find my mistake 2 days

Answer 1

You have three separate issues causing this to fail.

1. You have a typo in your xpath lookup, simply remove the leading white space
2. You are calling EC.text_to_be_present_in_element incorrectly.
3. You cannot call send_keys() on sign_in as it is a boolean

Addressing all of the above fixes the issue and inserts text into the box

from selenium.webdriver import ActionChains
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC

driver = webdriver.Chrome()
driver.get("https://www.icloud.com")
btn_log_in = driver.find_element(By.CLASS_NAME, "sign-in-button")
btn_log_in.click()


iframe = driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "//div[@class='home-login-component']//iframe[@id='aid-auth-widget-iFrame']")
driver.switch_to.frame(iframe)

#Remove typo, push your locator into a tuple and pass 'Apple ID' as the text to find
sign_in = WebDriverWait(driver, 10).until(EC.text_to_be_present_in_element((By.XPATH, "//span[@id='apple_id_field_label']"), 'Apple ID'))

#Correctly user ActionChains to send_keys
ActionChains(driver).send_keys("abc").perform()
