Scraping webpage with tabs that do not change url

I am trying to scrape Nasdaq webpage and have some issue with locating elements:
My code:
from selenium import webdriver
import time
import pandas as pd
driver.get('http://www.nasdaqomxnordic.com/shares/microsite?Instrument=CSE32679&symbol=ALK%20B&name=ALK-Abell%C3%B3%20B')
time.sleep(5)
btn_overview = driver.find_element_by_xpath('//*[#id="tabarea"]/section/nav/ul/li[2]/a')
btn_overview.click()
time.sleep(5)
employees = driver.find_element_by_xpath('//*[#id="CompanyProfile"]/div[6]')
After the last call, I receive the following error:
NoSuchElementException: no such element: Unable to locate element: {"method":"xpath","selector":"//*[#id="CompanyProfile"]/div[6]"}
Normally the problem would be in wrong 'xpath' but I tried several items, also by 'id'. I suspect that it has something to do with tabs (in my case navigating to "Overview"). Visually the webpage changes, but if for example, I scrape the table, it gets it from the first page:
table_test = pd.read_html(driver.page_source)[0]
What am I missing or doing wrong?

The overview page is under iframe
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.service import Service
from webdriver_manager.chrome import ChromeDriverManager
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
option = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
option.add_argument("start-maximized")
#chrome to stay open
option.add_experimental_option("detach", True)
driver = webdriver.Chrome(service=Service(ChromeDriverManager().install()),options=option)
driver.get('http://www.nasdaqomxnordic.com/shares/microsite?Instrument=CSE32679&symbol=ALK%20B&name=ALK-Abell%C3%B3%20B')
WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, '//*[#id="tabarea"]/section/nav/ul/li[2]/a'))).click()
WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, '//*[#id="cookieConsentOK"]'))).click()
WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.frame_to_be_available_and_switch_to_it((By.CSS_SELECTOR,"iframe#MorningstarIFrame")))
employees=WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.presence_of_element_located((By.XPATH, '//*[#id="CompanyProfile"]/div[6]'))).text.split()[1]
print(employees)
Output:

webdriverManager

You sure you need Selenium?
import requests
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
url = 'http://lt.morningstar.com/gj8uge2g9k/stockreport/default.aspx'
payload = {
'SecurityToken': '0P0000A5LL]3]1]E0EXG$XCSE_3060'}
response = requests.get(url, params=payload)
soup = BeautifulSoup(response.text, 'html.parser')
employees = soup.find('h3', text='Employees').next_sibling.text
print(employees)
Output:
2,537

How to get all links from a webpage using selenium?

I am trying to webscrape a site using Python, Selenium, Beautifulsoup.
When I tried to get all the links ,It' returning an invalid string.
This is what I have tried
Can someone help me please?
from time import sleep
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium import webdriver
driver = webdriver.Chrome()
driver.get('https://www.hirist.com/c/filter/mobile-applications-jobs-in-cochin%20kochi_trivandrum%20thiruvananthapuram-5-70_75-0-0-1-0-0-0-0-2.html?ref=homepagecat')
sleep(10)
links = driver.find_elements(by=By.XPATH, value='.//div[#class="jobfeed-wrapper multiple-wrapper"]')
for link in links:
link.get_attribute('href')
print(link)

It is your selection with xpath, you select the <div> that do not have an href attribute. Select also its first <a> like .//div[#class="jobfeed-wrapper multiple-wrapper"]/a and it will work:
links = driver.find_elements(by=By.XPATH, value='.//div[#class="jobfeed-wrapper multiple-wrapper"]/a')
for link in links:
print(link.get_attribute('href'))
Example
Instead of time use WebDriverWait to check if specific elements are available.
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from webdriver_manager.chrome import ChromeDriverManager
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
url = 'https://www.hirist.com/c/filter/mobile-applications-jobs-in-cochin%20kochi_trivandrum%20thiruvananthapuram-5-70_75-0-0-1-0-0-0-0-2.html?ref=homepagecat'
driver = webdriver.Chrome(ChromeDriverManager().install())
driver.maximize_window()
driver.get(url)
wait = WebDriverWait(driver, 10)
links = wait.until(EC.presence_of_all_elements_located((By.XPATH, './/div[#class="jobfeed-wrapper multiple-wrapper"]/a')))
for link in links:
print(link.get_attribute('href'))
Output

You didn't declare path to chromedriver on your computer. Check where the chromdriver is, then try
driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path=CHROME_DRIVER_PATH)

python using selenium webdriver mouser

I'm trying to open the Mouser website and use the search bar to send some data. Here's an example of the code but I can't get the right CSS selector. Thank you.
import time
from openpyxl import load_workbook
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys
from selenium.webdriver.support.wait import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path='C:/Users/amuri/AppData/Local/Microsoft/WindowsApps/PythonSoftwareFoundation.Python.3.9_qbz5n2kfra8p0/site-packages/chromedriver.exe')
driver.implicitly_wait(1)
url ='https://www.mouser.com/'
driver.get(url)
print(driver.title)
wait = WebDriverWait(driver, timeout=1)
wait.until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.CSS_SELECTOR, "#as-input-066 .form-control")))
elem = driver.find_element_by_css_selector("#as-input-066 .form-control")
elem.click()
elem.send_keys("myString")

Try the following css:
.form-control.headerSearchBox.search-input.js-search-autosuggest.as-input
xpath is even shorter:
//input[contains(#id,'as-input')]
Explanation: it looks at id that contains as-input
One more suggestion:
Change
wait = WebDriverWait(driver, timeout=1)
to
wait = WebDriverWait(driver, timeout=15)
1 second is too small timeout. It should be at least 10.

Webscrape data from webpage -Python/Selenium

My code executes and gets into the page I want to scrape. Once I am there, im having a hard time printing any elements, in this case just the Names.
The page log in through the code so you can replace the "ExampleUsername" with any email / fake account if you are skeptical.
Here is the code:
import time
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
from webdriver_manager.chrome import ChromeDriverManager
productlinks=[]
test1=[]
options = Options()
driver = webdriver.Chrome(ChromeDriverManager().install())
url = "https://www.linkedin.com/uas/login?session_redirect=https%3A%2F%2Fwww%2Elinkedin%2Ecom%2Fsearch%2Fresults%2Fpeople%2F%3FcurrentCompany%3D%255B%25221252860%2522%255D%26geoUrn%3D%255B%2522103644278%2522%255D%26keywords%3Dsales%26origin%3DFACETED_SEARCH%26page%3D2&fromSignIn=true&trk=cold_join_sign_in"
driver.get(url)
time.sleep(2)
username = driver.find_element_by_id('username')
username.send_keys('Example#gmail.com')
password = driver.find_element_by_id('password')
password.send_keys('ExamplePassword')
password.submit()
element1 = driver.find_elements_by_class_name("name actor-name")
title=[t.text for t in element1]
print(title)

find_elements_by_class_name() doesn't accepts multiple class name. Instead you can use css selector.
To avoid synchronization issue Induce WebDriverWait() and wait for visibility_of_all_elements_located() and following css selector.
element1 =WebDriverWait(driver,10).until(EC.visibility_of_all_elements_located((By.CSS_SELECTOR,".name.actor-name")))
title=[t.text for t in element1]
print(title)
you need to import below libraries.
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait

Python, Selenium, and Beautiful Soup for URL

I am trying to write a script using Selenium to access pastebin do a search and print out in text the URL results. I need the visible URL results and nothing else.
<div class="gs-bidi-start-align gs-visibleUrl gs-visibleUrl-long" dir="ltr" style="word-break:break-all;">pastebin.com/VYQTSbzY</div>
Current script is:
import time
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
browser = webdriver.Firefox()
browser.get('http://www.pastebin.com')
search = browser.find_element_by_name('q')
search.send_keys("test")
search.send_keys(Keys.RETURN)
soup=BeautifulSoup(browser.page_source)
for link in soup.find_all('a'):
print link.get('href',None),link.get_text()

You don't actually need BeautifulSoup. selenium itself is very powerful at locating element:
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys
browser = webdriver.Firefox()
browser.get('http://www.pastebin.com')
search = browser.find_element_by_name('q')
search.send_keys("test")
search.send_keys(Keys.RETURN)
# wait for results to appear
wait = WebDriverWait(browser, 10)
results = wait.until(EC.visibility_of_element_located((By.CSS_SELECTOR, "div.gsc-resultsbox-visible")))
# grab results
for link in results.find_elements_by_css_selector("a.gs-title"):
print link.get_attribute("href")
browser.close()
Prints:
http://pastebin.com/VYQTSbzY
http://pastebin.com/VYQTSbzY
http://pastebin.com/VAAQCjkj
...
http://pastebin.com/fVUejyRK
http://pastebin.com/fVUejyRK
Note the use of an Explicit Wait which helps to wait for the search results to appear.
