Can't find element with selenium in python 3

Question

I am using selenium to do some WebScraping but can't detect an element with xpath, full xpath, id or text.

<div id="cbp-vm" class="cbp-vm-switcher cbp-vm-view-list"> <div class=cbp-vm-options">...</div> <div> <ul>...<ul> </div> </div>

I want to get stuff from inside the but can't. I can locate objects up to the "cbp-vm-switcher" stuff with both xpath and id.

Does this answer your question? How to select element using XPATH syntax on Selenium for Python? — user9321739

I kinda solved the problem because I found out that if I run a document.evaluate script in the console it can return the value but when I try to use the driver.execute_script methode it returns None. — SkenDev

you can use a google exstension called katalon Recorder, it basically works like a recorder and is usually very accurate.

I tried it but all of the xpaths to the element fail, and the css selector does too

make sure that you are selecting the correct bit of the XPath, I haven't ever had a malfunction or indirect XPath using it, also make sure that the thing your trying to interact with is a button or some sort of interaction object
