Python Selenium Selecting Files from File System

Question

I'm trying to select files from the file system to add to the field which is not a form field, I tried using "send_keys" but didn't work.

Also, is there any way to handle os pop up's like "renaming a file in the download dialog box before saving it"?

Here's the link, please have a look: https://pdfcandy.com/jpg-to-pdf.html

apologize I'm kinda new to these sort of things, can you please elaborate a little.

First upload the file and then inspect the element and see if an input element is there

yeah, when I upload the files it creates multiple 'img' tags. should I inject these 'img' tags using your solution ?

Could you provide the site link

@Sean it already have inut element updated the answer just send file path to that element
