Custom keyword robot framework selenium webdriver python "object has no attribute 'get_attribute' "

I am trying to write custom function using robot framework existing Seleniumlibrary in python to get link from element. But I am keep getting an issue in get_attribute.

Error : 'list' object has no attribute 'get_attribute'

Library imported

from selenium import webdriver
from robot.libraries.BuiltIn import BuiltIn

def get_one_links(locator,attribute):
    lib = BuiltIn().get_library_instance('SeleniumLibrary')
    links = lib.find_elements(locator).get_attribute(attribute)
    return links

That's because you are trying to call the method on a list, you can only call on a single element. See the example below. The "get_attribute" property doesn't exist for lists, but the "get_attribute" property does for single element. For example:

You need to do something like this in your code,

from selenium import webdriver
from robot.libraries.BuiltIn import BuiltIn

def get_one_links(locator,attribute):
    lib = BuiltIn().get_library_instance('SeleniumLibrary')
    links = lib.find_elements(locator)
    for link in links:
        return link.get_attribute('href')
        #return link if thats what you want
