How can I click first channel in YouTube with python after searching one?

I am trying to click the first YouTube channel on the top of the result page. My code is as follows.

from selenium import webdriver
!pip install webdriver-manager
from webdriver_manager.chrome import ChromeDriverManager
driver = webdriver.Chrome('D:\chromedrive\chromedriver.exe')
keyword=['"K_Pop TV"']

for kk in keyword:
    driver.get("http://youtube.com")
    #input keyword
    driver.find_element_by_name("""search_query""").send_keys(kk)
    #search
    driver.find_element_by_id("search-icon-legacy").click()
    time.sleep(2)
    #click the first channel on result page
    driver.find_elements_by_id('avatar').click()

However, I kept showing the error of "'list' object has no attribute 'click'", which may mean that it couldn't find the element of the channel access. Would someone please help me?

This error 'list' object has no attribute 'click is cause you are using find_elements that will return a list of web element.

A list in Python does not have a .click() method

use find_element instead which will return a single web element.

so make the below change in your existing code :

driver.find_element_by_id('avatar').click()
