How to locate and click on the recaptcha checkbox using Selenium and Python

Question

I've already tried in several ways to click this checkbox with selenium and I couldn't. Link: http://buscatextual.cnpq.br/buscatextual/email.do?metodo=apresentar&seqIdPessoa=246740&nomeDestinatario=Maria_Jos%E9_Panichi_Vieira I already tried with XPATH, with CLASS_NAME and others, but the return is always the same:

no such element: Unable to locate element:

Can anyone help me?

Code trials:

from selenium import webdriver
from time import sleep

from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By

from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
from fake_useragent import UserAgent
from capmonster_python import RecaptchaV2Task

class ChromeAuto:
    def __init__(self):
        options = Options()
        ua = UserAgent()
        self.userAgent = ua.random
        print(self.userAgent)
        options.add_argument(f'user-agent={self.userAgent}')
        self.driver_path = r'chromedriver'
        self.options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
        self.options.add_argument('--profile-directory=1')
        self.options.add_experimental_option("excludeSwitches", ["enable-automation"])
        self.options.add_experimental_option("useAutomationExtension", False)
        self.captcha = RecaptchaV2Task("c6eea325a7a78273c062d2bb23a2a43d")

        self.chrome = webdriver.Chrome(
            self.driver_path,
            options=self.options
        )
    def test(self):
        self.chrome.get('http://buscatextual.cnpq.br/buscatextual/email.do?metodo=apresentar&seqIdPessoa=246740&nomeDestinatario=Maria_Jos%E9_Panichi_Vieira')
        sleep(5)
        self.chrome.find_element(By.XPATH, '//*[@id="recaptcha-anchor"]/div[1]').click()

if __name__ == '__main__':
    chrome = ChromeAuto()
    chrome.test()

does this help browserstack.com/guide/…

The ReCaptcha checkbox is within an <iframe> so you have to:

Induce WebDriverWait for the desired frame to be available and switch to it.
Induce WebDriverWait for the desired element to be clickable.

You can use either of the following Locator Strategies:

Using CSS_SELECTOR:

driver.get('http://buscatextual.cnpq.br/buscatextual/email.do?metodo=apresentar&seqIdPessoa=246740&nomeDestinatario=Maria_Jos%E9_Panichi_Vieira')
WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.frame_to_be_available_and_switch_to_it((By.CSS_SELECTOR,"iframe[title='reCAPTCHA']")))
WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.CSS_SELECTOR, "div.recaptcha-checkbox-border"))).click()

Using XPATH:

driver.get('http://buscatextual.cnpq.br/buscatextual/email.do?metodo=apresentar&seqIdPessoa=246740&nomeDestinatario=Maria_Jos%E9_Panichi_Vieira')
WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.frame_to_be_available_and_switch_to_it((By.XPATH,"//iframe[@title='reCAPTCHA']")))
WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.CSS_SELECTOR, "div.recaptcha-checkbox-border"))).click()

PS: Clicking on the ReCaptcha checkbox opens the image selection panel.

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
