How to click on like/dislike button of YouTube video using selenium webdriver python?

my code :
react_on_video = (input("React: ")).upper()
video_link = "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=blablabla"
(After login with my gmail account)
driver.get(video_link)
driver.execute_script("window.scrollTo(0, 300);")
time.sleep(1)
if react_on_video == "LIKE":
Like_button_Full_xpath = "/html/body/ytd-app/div/ytd-page-manager/ytd-watch-
flexy/div[5]/div[1]/div/div[8]/div[2]/ytd-video-primary-info-
renderer/div/div/div[3]/div/ytd-menu-renderer/div[1]/ytd-toggle-button-renderer[1]/a/yt-
icon-button/button/yt-icon"
driver.find_element_by_xpath(Like_button_Full_xpath).click()
if react_on_video == "DISLIKE":
Dislike_button_Full_xpath = "/html/body/ytd-app/div/ytd-page-manager/ytd-watch-
flexy/div[5]/div[1]/div/div[8]/div[2]/ytd-video-primary-info-
renderer/div/div/div[3]/div/ytd-menu-renderer/div[1]/ytd-toggle-button-renderer[2]/a/yt-
icon-button/button/yt-icon"
driver.find_element_by_xpath(Dislike_button_Full_xpath).click()
But every time it shows No such element exception!
[selenium.common.exceptions.NoSuchElementException: Message: no such element:]
I've tried with other selectors and xpaths; but none of them worked! Is there any permanent solution? Because once I was able to click on the buttons with this xpath. I had to change xpath multiple times.
Like_button_xpath : '//[#id="top-level-buttons"]/ytd-toggle-button-renderer1/a'
Dislike_button_xpath : '//[#id="top-level-buttons"]/ytd-toggle-button-renderer[2]/a'

I found Solution. Try xPath
Like_button_Full_xpath = "//div[3]/div/ytd-menu-renderer/div/ytd-toggle-button-renderer/a/yt-icon-button/button/yt-icon"
Tell me if it work.

Instead of using xpath, I would use a css selector. I can't guarantee that this selector will be unique without seeing the full HTML, but I would try finding the "Like" button like this:
driver.find_element_by_css_selector('yt-icon.style-scope.ytd-toggle-button-renderer')

How to find element by its class Selenium?

I'm trying to click Log In button on Facebook Page. I'm trying to locate the button by class_name, but it returns an error.
html:
python:
submit = browser.find_element_by_class_name("a8c37x1j ni8dbmo4 stjgntxs l9j0dhe7 ltmttdrg g0qnabr5").text("Log In")

The space in the class name is like a seperator for the classes in css, what means that you look for many classes at once, so it wont work. Try it like this:
submit = browser.find_element_by_class_name("a8c37x1j")
And when you want to click the button later on, you have to remove .text, because it just gives you the text of the button, but not the element. In order to click, just do this:
submit.click()

You can chain it with css selectors.
Example
from selenium import webdriver
html = '''<span class="a8c37x1j ni8dbmo4 stjgntxs l9j0dhe7 ltmttdrg g0qnabr5">Log In</span>'''
driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path=r'C:\Program Files\ChromeDriver\chromedriver.exe')
driver.get("data:text/html;charset=utf-8,{0}".format(html))
driver.find_element_by_css_selector("span.a8c37x1j.ni8dbmo4.stjgntxs.l9j0dhe7.ltmttdrg.g0qnabr5")

How to perform data fetch on button click on a built in html page using selenium

I am new to Selenium and I am trying to mimic user actions on a site to fetch data from a built in html page on button click. I am able to populate all the field details, but button click is not working, it looks like js code not running.
I tried many options like adding wait time, Action chain etc but it didnt work, i am providing site and code i have written.
driver = webdriver.Chrome()
driver.get("https://www1.nseindia.com/products/content/derivatives/equities/historical_fo.htm")
driver.implicitly_wait(10)
assigned values to all the other fields
driver.find_element_by_id('rdDateToDate').click()
Dfrom = driver.find_element_by_id('fromDate')
Dfrom.send_keys("02-Oct-2020")
Dto = driver.find_element_by_id('toDate')
Dto.send_keys("08-Oct-2020")
innerHTML = driver.execute_script("document.ready")
sleep(5)
getdata_btn = driver.find_element_by_id('getButton')
ActionChains(driver).move_to_element(getdata_btn).click().click().perform()

I recommend using a full xpath.
chrome.get("https://www1.nseindia.com/products/content/derivatives/equities/historical_fo.htm")
time.sleep(2)
print("click")
fullxpath = "/html/body/div[2]/div[3]/div[2]/div[1]/div[3]/div/div[1]/div/form/div[19]/p[2]/input"
chrome.find_element_by_xpath(fullxpath).click()
I have tried the button clicking and it worked with XPath ... I though its because of someone used the ID twice on a website, but I can not find it ... so i have no idea whats going wrong there ...
Good luck :)

How to click the icon using selenium

I am trying to automate my certain activities using selenium. I was launching a webpage and a security windows popup appears for the login credentials.
I have automated that using Autoit. Now after login I need to click on the option and I have tried it based on the find_element_by_text and find_element_by_id.
I was getting an error as Unable to find the element with CSS selector and I have seen some other post in the StackOverflow with the same issue but I could not able to fix it by myself.
Here is how my HTML looks like. Could you please guide me on this and also please share any document for further checking. Thanks.
driver = webdriver.Ie(r"C:\\IEDriverServer\\IEDriverServer.exe")
driver.get('URL of the page')
#driver.implicitly_wait(10) # seconds
autoit.win_wait("Windows Security")
# now make that crap active so we can do stuff to it
autoit.win_activate("Windows Security")
# type in the username
autoit.send('username')
# tab to the password field
autoit.send("{TAB}")
# type in the password
autoit.send('password')
# kill!
autoit.send("{ENTER}")
driver.maximize_window()
driver.implicitly_wait(120) # seconds
#submit_button_incidents = driver.find_element_by_link_text("3-Normal Incidents")
submit_button_incidents= driver.find_element_by_id("nodeImgs13pm")
submit_button_incidents.click()
driver.implicitly_wait(10)
++ updating the info
I have tried to copy the whole HTML but the page was restricted so I cant able to view the full HTML page other than the basic templates. Adding some more screenshots of the developer tools.
Here how my webpage looks like.

try with this code :
submit_button_incidents = WebDriverWait(driver, 10).until(
EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//span[contains(text(),'My Group'])")))
submit_button_incidents.click()
and do not use implicit wait too many times in code.
Implicit wait is set for life time of web driver instance.
Reference :
Selenium official document for wiats
Xpath tutorial
cssSelector tutorial
UPDATE :
As OP has shared the HTML code. As per the requirement you can go ahead with this code.
As there are two elements with text as My Groups's queue.
For first one you can write XPATH as :
//a[#class='scbdtext']/span[contains(text(),'My Group')]
Code:
submit_button_incidents = WebDriverWait(driver, 10).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//a[#class='scbdtext']/span[contains(text(),'My Group')]")))
submit_button_incidents.click()
For second one you can write XPATH as :
//a[#class='scbdtextfoc']/span[contains(text(),'My Group')]
Code :
submit_button_incidents = WebDriverWait(driver, 10).until(
EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//a[#class='scbdtextfoc']/span[contains(text(),'My Group')]")))
submit_button_incidents.click()
Hope this will help.

Use ActionChains with double click for this to work in Python.
from selenium.webdriver import ActionChains
# Get the element however you want
element = driver.find_element_by_xpath("//a[#class='scbdtextfoc']/span[contains(text(),'My Group')]")
ActionChains(driver).double_click(settings_icon).perform()

Python+Selenium, can't click the 'button' wrapped by span

I am new to selenium here. I am trying to use selenium to click a 'more' button to expand the review section everytime after refreshing the page.
The website is TripAdvisor. The logic of more button is, as long as you click on the first more button, it will automatically expand all the review sections for you. In other words, you just need to click on the first 'more' button.
All buttons have a similar class name. An example is like taLnk.hvrIE6.tr415411081.moreLink.ulBlueLinks. Only the numbers part changes everytime.
The full element look like this:
<span class="taLnk hvrIE6 tr413756996 moreLink ulBlueLinks" onclick=" var options = {
flow: 'CORE_COMBINED',
pid: 39415,
onSuccess: function() { ta.util.cookie.setPIDCookie(2247); ta.call('ta.servlet.Reviews.expandReviews', {type: 'dummy'}, ta.id('review_413756996'), 'review_413756996', '1', 2247);; window.location.hash = 'review_413756996'; }
};
ta.call('ta.registration.RegOverlay.show', {type: 'dummy'}, ta.id('review_413756996'), options);
return false;
">
More </span>
I have tried several ways to get the button click. But since it is an onclick event wrapped by span, I can't successfully get it clicked.
My last version looks like this:
driver = webdriver.Firefox()
driver.get(newurl)
page_source = driver.page_source
soup = BeautifulSoup(page_source)
moreID = soup.find("span", class_=re.compile(r'.*\bmoreLink\b.*'))['class']
moreID = '.'.join(moreID[0:(len(moreID)+1)])
moreButton = 'span.' + moreID
button = driver.find_element_by_css_selector(moreButton)
button.click()
time.sleep(10)
However, I keep getting the error message like this:
WebDriverException: Message: Element is not clickable at point (318.5,
7.100006103515625). Other element would receive the click....
Can you advise me on how to fix the problem? Any help will be appreciated!

WebDriverException: Message: Element is not clickable at point (318.5, 7.100006103515625). Other element would receive the click....
This error to be occur when element is not in the view port and selenium couldn't click due to some other overlay element on it. In this case you should try one of these following solution :-
You can try using ActionChains to reach that element before click as below :-
from selenium.webdriver.common.action_chains import ActionChains
button = driver.find_element_by_css_selector(moreButton)
ActionChains(button).move_to_element(element).click().perform()
You can try using execute_script() to reach that element before click as :-
driver.execute_script("arguments[0].scrollIntoView(true)", button)
button.click()
You can try using JavaScript::click() with execute_script() but this JavaScript::click() defeats the purpose of the test. First because it doesn't generate all the events like a real click (focus, blur, mousedown, mouseup...) and second because it doesn't guarantee that a real user can interact with the element. But to get rid from this issues you can consider it as an alternate solution.
driver.execute_script("arguments[0].click()", button)
Note:- Before using these options make sure you're trying to interact with correct element using with correct locator, otherwise WebElement.click() would work well after wait until element visible and clickable using WebDriverWait.

Try using an ActionChains:
from selenium.webdriver.common.action_chains import ActionChains
# Your existing code here
# Minus the `button.click()` line
ActionChains(driver).move_to_element(button).cli‌​ck().perform()
I have used this technique when I need to click on a <div> or a <span> element, rather than an actual button or link.
