How can i filter html output in python?

Question

I need help to filter html output, here the output:

button /div div class="b-header_actions-item m-account" div id="csrf-token-element" data-token-name="csrf_token" data-token-value="WHAT I WANT"

Is it possible to filter this out?

Thanks

so you want to get the value of the attribute data-token-name which is "csrf_token"? And can you please show us the HTML tag itself. It looks like that you included the XPath — ezzeddin

According to this screenshot in the comment, you can get the attribute value with the following snippet:

html_doc = '<div id="csrf-token-element" data-token-name="csrf_token" data-token-value="WHAT I WANT"></div>'
soup = BeautifulSoup(html_doc, "html.parser")
tag = soup.find(id="csrf-token-element")
tag.attrs["data-token-value"]
