python error message - Element not visible

I am getting this error:

selenium.common.exceptions.ElementNotVisibleException: Message: element not visible. or Element is not currently interactable.

How do I fix it?

element:

input class="artfld col-all-min ng-pristine ng-invalid ng-touched" formcontrolname="id" maxlength="10" placeholder="身分證字號" type="text"

code:

from selenium import webdriver
import time
from PIL import Image
from pynput.keyboard import Key,Controller
browser = webdriver.Chrome()
browser.get('https://mma.sinopac.com/SinoCard/Activity/Register?Code=TLDI')
time.sleep(0.3)
browser.find_element_by_xpath("/html/body/app-root/div/app-activity-register/div/div[2]/div/div/section/app-activity-register-verification/form/div[1]/table/tbody/tr[3]/td/input").send_keys("1234")

Question 2: How to get the element on a button within a pop-up window with python selenium after you click the red button?

element: button type="button" class="swal2-confirm swal2-styled" aria-label="" style="background-color: rgb(48, 133, 214); border-left-color: rgb(48, 133, 214); border-right-color: rgb(48, 133, 214);">確定 /button

To send a character sequence within the desired element you have to induce WebDriverWait for the element_to_be_clickable() and you can use either of the following solutions:

  • Using CSS_SELECTOR:

    driver.get("https://mma.sinopac.com/SinoCard/Activity/Register?Code=TLDI")
    WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.CSS_SELECTOR, "input.artfld.col-all-min.ng-untouched.ng-pristine.ng-invalid[formcontrolname='id']"))).send_keys("YOYO")
    
  • Using XPATH:

    driver.get("https://mma.sinopac.com/SinoCard/Activity/Register?Code=TLDI")
    WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//input[@class='artfld col-all-min ng-untouched ng-pristine ng-invalid' and @formcontrolname='id']"))).send_keys("YOYO")
    
  • Note : You have to add the following imports :

    from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
    from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
    from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
    
  • Browser Snapshot:

Can you use explicit wait instead of time.sleep(0.3) as follows:

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.action_chains import ActionChains
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC

browser = webdriver.Chrome()

# wait for an element to appear.
wait = WebDriverWait(browser, 10)
waited_element = wait.until(EC.visibility_of_element_located((By.XPATH, xpath_of_element)))
