Hi @Andersson, thanks for your very detailed resonse. However, when I try running this code driver.find_element_by_xpath('//a[contains(@href, "services.ics")]') I receive NoSuchElementException: Message: no such element: Unable to locate element: {"method":"css selector","selector":"a[href$=".ics"]"} (Session info: chrome=59.0.3071.115)

Received a TimeoutException: Message: by applying the ExplicitWait. Would this mean the link is not generated dynamically?

This might mean that link located inside an iframe. Can you check if there is an <iframe> element among link ancestors?

It could also mean there are more than one element that has the "services.ics" href or the "title" is used more than once via the a tag.

@MQ1217, trumba.spud.1.iframe is iframe ID. If you need general selector you can try wait(driver, 10).until(EC.frame_to_be_available_and_switch_to_it(driver.find_element_by_tag_name('iframe'))), but this will allow you to switch to first iframe on the page. If target element located inside of another iframe, you should use more specific selector
