I'm trying to run a script that automate a certain task. Which is:
- Chrome searches website
- Login to website (Fill in details)
- Navigate to a tab (Called Jobs Listings V2)
- Input a product barcode on "Jobs Listing V2"
- Capture XML data that search returns and save to an XLS file
- Repeat for the next barcode
I'm currently stuck on step 3 where no matter what my code is it stays on the homepage of the website.
My current code so far is
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.service import Service
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from webdriver_manager.chrome import ChromeDriverManager
options = Options()
options.add_experimental_option("detach", True)
driver = webdriver.Chrome(service=Service(ChromeDriverManager().install()), options=options)
driver.maximize_window()
driver.get("https://brands.silo.co.za/#/Job/JobListingV2")
full_name_input = driver.find_element(By.ID, "Fullname")
full_name_input.send_keys("Meeaad Bharoochi")
full_name_input = driver.find_element(By.ID, "Password")
full_name_input.send_keys("Password@1")
submit_button = driver.find_element(By.CLASS_NAME, "btn-primary")
submit_button.click()
anchor_element = driver.find_element(By.LINK_TEXT, "Job Listing V2")
anchor_element.click()

This is html.index of the website i need to automate. Highlighted is the webpage im not able to select.
I've tried Xpaths but I am uncertain what exactly is going wrong is it the wait second?
jobs_dropdown = driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "//a[contains(@class, 'dropdown-toggle') and contains(text(), 'Jobs')]")
As well as ive tried
anchor_element = driver.find_element(By.LINK_TEXT, "Job Listing V2")
anchor_element.click()
