Linkedin LogIn with Selenium

Question

I am creating a short program in Python - Selenium to login to my Linkedin Profile, it opens the new windows but I get an error on line 13 during the debug:

Exception has occurred: AttributeError
'WebDriver' object has no attribute 'find_element_by_xpath'
  File "C:\Users\viale\Desktop\Automation\linkedin_selenium_auto.py", line 13, in <module>
    username = driver.find_element_by_xpath("//input[@name='session_key']")

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.wait import WebDriverWait
import time

driver = webdriver.Chrome("C:/Users/viale/Desktop/Automation/chromedriver.exe")
driver.get("https://linkedin.com")

time.sleep(4)

username = driver.find_element_by_xpath("//input[@name='session_key']")
password = driver.find_element_by_xpath("//input[@name='session_password']")

username.send_keys("username@gmail.com")
password.send_keys("******")

time.sleep(4)

submit = driver.find_element_by_xpath("//button[@type='submit']").click()
time.sleep(4)

What is the Selenium version you are using? – AbiSaran Nov 28 '22 at 09:46 — AbiSaran, Nov 28 '22 at 09:46

You have to mention like this:

driver.find_element(By.XPATH,"//input[@name='session_key']")

Hi AbiSaran, it works, thank you. Last version is: – Valerio Viale Nov 28 '22 at 12:41
username = driver.find_element(By.XPATH,"//input[@name='session_key']") password = driver.find_element(By.XPATH,"//input[@name='session_password']") . . password = driver.find_element(By.XPATH,"//button[@type='submit']").click() . – Valerio Viale Nov 28 '22 at 12:42
