How to accept a cookie consent with Selenium Python

Question

I am trying to accept cookies consent with Selenium Python. I tried to search with CSS selector and XPath but nothing works. This is the HTML:

<button class="sc-1epc5np-0 dnGUzk sc-f7uhhq-2 coEmEP button button--filled button__acceptAll" type="button"><span theme="[object Object]" class="sc-1vlt5h-0 sc-1epc5np-1 cMLEOX baseText">Accept Cookies</span></button>
    <span theme="[object Object]" class="sc-1vlt5h-0 sc-1epc5np-1 cMLEOX baseText">Accept Cookies</span>
</button>

I tried the following code :

WebDriverWait(driver, 40).until(EC.presence_of_element_located((By.CSS_SELECTOR, '.sc-1vlt5h-0.sc-1epc5np-1.cMLEOX.baseText')))

I also tried:

driver.find_element_by_css_selector("cMLEOX").click()
driver.find_element_by_css_selector(".cMLEOX").click()

Nothing works. What is the solution?

The desired element is a dynamic element, so to click() on the element instead of presence_of_element_located() you need to induce WebDriverWait for the element_to_be_clickable() and you can use either of the following locator strategies:

Using CSS_SELECTOR:

WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.CSS_SELECTOR, "button.button__acceptAll > span.baseText"))).click()

Using XPATH:

WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//button[contains(@class, 'button__acceptAll')]/span[text()='Accept Cookies']"))).click()

Note: You have to add the following imports :

from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
