You are only sending the path according to your code, you have to click the button afterwards.

whats the error though?

because the browser tab close and show error in this line (of the path)

yeah, whats the error that you see in console?

So the code you provided, attempts to locate a button element on the page using the specific XPATH expression . If the element is found, it will be stored in the variable button_of_reels. This button element can then be interacted with using various Selenium methods, such as click() method to click on it. Still dont see the problem.

Can you show what the errror message says?
If needed please provide all of the code needed to replicate the error as shown here:
https://stackoverflow.com/help/minimal-reproducible-example
Also make sure you have the right path and the element is visible on the page.

is the element not being detected?

you could do a wait for element

You have to import these

from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC

then


wait.until(EC.visibility_of_element_located((By.XPATH, 'YOUR XPATH HERE')))

if not it could be dynamic or just xpath sometimes bugs for me, i had that happen.

but if its a drag and drop upload you have to use an entire different type of approach
you need to give us more information to help with your error.

You have posted your code but not the error that you are getting for the same. If it's because the browser exits before the elements are loaded, then you have to use this to wait for the element to load.
