I have the following code, and trying to connect to itunesconnect using selenium

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait

driver = webdriver.Firefox()

driver.get("https://itunesconnect.apple.com/WebObjects/iTunesConnect.woa")
element = WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(lambda driver : driver.find_element_by_id('appleId'))

But i was getting *** TimeoutException: Message: as below

Any idea of what's going wrong ?

Solution

  • The element is inside iframe, you need to switch to it first

    driver.switch_to_frame('authFrame') # by frame id, can also be name or WebElement
element = WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(lambda driver : driver.find_element_by_id('appleId'))

    And to switch back

    driver.switch_to_default_content()
