使用 selenium 在隐藏输入上上传图像

Question

This question has been asked many times over the years but all the answers I've found have been outdated.

With modern websites, the input element tends to be hidden. I'm trying to upload a file to a social media platform as the profile picture. I've tried finding the hidden input element and entering the file directory of the png/jpg but no luck.

I don't want to use libraries like pyautogui because I want the program to run fully automatously in the background of the users computer.

The upload is covered by an <svg> and underneath there is a <label> & <input> .

Thanks in advance

Answer 1

Have you tried sending the file you trying to upload with this command:

driver.find_element_by_xpath("//input[@type='file']").send_keys(the_path_to_the_file_on_your_pc)

?

Answer 2

It's inputting the file but the croppable image doesn't show up
