How to input a text on a textbox using selenium with Python

I'm using Selenium with Python to input an address into a textbox within the Glovo page for Madrid. The code I wrote can be seen below, and the error I get is also copied after the code.
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
import time
url = 'https://glovoapp.com/es/es/madrid/'
# open browser
driver = webdriver.Chrome()
# load page
driver.get(url)
# find field
item = driver.find_element_by_class_name('address-input__container')
# select textbox and input text
time.sleep(2)
item.click()
WebDriverWait(driver, 10).until(
EC.presence_of_element_located((By.CLASS_NAME, "el-input__inner"))
)
item = driver.find_element_by_class_name('el-input__inner')
time.sleep(2)
item.send_keys('Calle')
The error I get is shown below.
Traceback (most recent call last):
item.send_keys('Calle')

Locator you are using is returning 2 different elements. See if this works
item = driver.find_element_by_xpath("//input[#class='el-input__inner' and #data-test-id='address-input-autocomplete']")
item.send_keys("Calle")

Using various xpath for the element address-input__containerand trying to click it is not working while automation and throws ElementNotInteractableException: Message: element not interactable You can refer this question. Applying the same and it works.
from selenium.webdriver.common.action_chains import ActionChains
driver.get("https://glovoapp.com/es/es/madrid/")
box = driver.find_element_by_class_name('address-input__container')
time.sleep(2)
ActionChains(driver).move_to_element(box).click(box).perform()
driver.find_element_by_xpath("//input[#data-test-id='address-input-autocomplete']").send_keys("SampleText")

python with selenium automating login

I'm new to selenium
Here I want to ask about a problem code (actually not mine)
this is the code
aww = email.strip().split('|')
driver = webdriver.Chrome()
driver.get("https://stackoverflow.com/users/signup?ssrc=head&returnurl=%2fusers%2fstory%2fcurrent")
time.sleep(5)
loginform = driver.find_element_by_xpath("//button[#data-provider='google']")
loginform.click()
mailform = driver.find_element_by_id('identifierId')
mailform.send_keys(aww[0])
driver.find_element_by_xpath("//div[#id='identifierNext']").click()
time.sleep(3)
passform = driver.find_element_by_css_selector("input[type='password']")
passform.send_keys(aww[1])
driver.find_element_by_id('passwordNext').click()
time.sleep(3)

I'm using those code for automating turn on the less-secure apps from Gmail
and the error will pop up like this

any help gonna be helpfull,sorry for my english before :)

You can simply target this xpath and .click to toggle the less secure apps.
lessoff = driver.find_element_by_xpath("input[type='checkbox']").click()

It looks like it couldn't find the element it's looking for so give some time to load the element. You can check with Wait().until.
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait as wait
wait(driver, 10).until(EC.presence_of_element_located((By.XPATH, 'YOUR_XPATH')))
when you try to click an element make sure it's there. above code will wait until the element located for the 10s if the element not located then it will throw an exception

Python Selenium - Unable to locate element

I just started learning selenium and I'm facing some issues with some code that should be quite easy to write..
I'm simply trying to enter "Paris" in the input field, but I keep getting the error: "Unable to locate element". Do I need to refer to the div tag or the input tag in order for it to work?
Here's my code at the moment.
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait as wait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
import time
# Setup webdriver
PATH = "C:\Program Files (x86)\chromedriver.exe"
driver = webdriver.Chrome(PATH)
# Open website maximized
driver.get("https://www.corsair.ca/")
driver.maximize_window()
print(driver.title)
# Select and enter destination
wait(driver, 10).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//span[text()='Votre destination']"))).click()
to_city = driver.find_element_by_class_name("form-control valid")
to_city.send_keys("Paris")
to_city.send_keys(Keys.RETURN)
Here's the error I have

thanks in advance

You can not find title because you get all of the div from the resultsCol. which means some div have title and some not.
Try this :
try:
td = WebDriverWait(driver, 10).until(
EC.presence_of_element_located((By.ID, "resultsCol"))
)
divs = td.find_elements_by_tag_name("div")
#print(divs)
for div in divs:
try:
header = div.find_element_by_class_name("title")
print(header.text)
except:
continue
finally:
driver.quit()
driver.quit()
which give title as output :

Selenium Webdriver :- Element Not Interactable Exception for the search option

Whenever webelement is found but not ready to interact then webdriver will throw element not intractable exception.
1.Mostly it occurs, when element is located in bottom of the page, so it can be accessible by scrolling the page down. You can use Action class to scroll to scroll to that element
WebElement element = driver.findElement(By.id("my-id"));
Actions actions = new Actions(driver);
actions.moveToElement(element);
## actions.click();
actions.perform();
2. Sometimes we need to wait few seconds to access the web element, in such situations we can add wait statements.
wait = WebDriverWait(driver, 10)
element = wait.until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.ID, 'someid')))
