Use element.getAttribute("value") and you will get the value which is visible on the webpage.

You want to get value of the input, to do it:

In Chrome console:

document.querySelector("#endDate").value

Selenium Python:

end_date = driver.find_element_by_id("endDate").get_attribute("value")

Selenium Java:

String endDate = driver.findElement(By.id("endDate")).getAttribute("value");
