I have below dom elements

I have tried choose_file but it is not working in my case, I have also tried the send_keys() method but still not working.

Selenium base support the choose_file() method if the dom element is type="file" but in my case that is missing.

Looking for any help

Are you sure no element matching `input[type='file']` exists on that page? – Prophet Nov 18 '22 at 11:16
@Prophet thanks for your time, Yes i am sure there is no `input[type='file']` – Krupal Vaghasiya Nov 18 '22 at 11:25
Well, without such element I do not know how to upload file with Selenium. Can you share a link to that page? – Prophet Nov 18 '22 at 11:29
@Prophet Please let me know if you got any workaround – Krupal Vaghasiya Nov 18 '22 at 11:39
there are 23 `input[type='file']` elements on that page – Prophet Nov 18 '22 at 11:43
Yes but not for that element which I want – Krupal Vaghasiya Nov 18 '22 at 11:44

@Prophet Please ping me if you got any solution – Krupal Vaghasiya Nov 18 '22 at 11:59
I see no difference between all those elements. I guess each one of them is for uploading files to different sections on that page, but I can't distinguish between them to see what input belongs to what section. – Prophet Nov 18 '22 at 12:05
What else i can do for that? any way to overcome from that? – Krupal Vaghasiya Nov 18 '22 at 12:24
As I see - nothing. If you were working for that company you could ask frontend developers to add some unique attributes for those elements. – Prophet Nov 18 '22 at 13:20
Can we upload file anyhow using pure python? – Krupal Vaghasiya Nov 18 '22 at 13:26
There are more tools / libraries, but I'm not so familiar with them. I'm sorry – Prophet Nov 18 '22 at 13:32
