Page.$() method

Finds the first element that matches the selector. If no element matches the selector, the return value resolves to null.

class Page {
  $<Selector extends string>(
    selector: Selector
  ): Promise<ElementHandle<NodeFor<Selector>> | null>;
}

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
selector	Selector	selector to query the page for. CSS selectors can be passed as-is and a Puppeteer-specific selector syntax allows quering by text, a11y role and name, and xpath and combining these queries across shadow roots. Alternatively, you can specify the selector type using a prefix.

Returns:

Promise<ElementHandle<NodeFor<Selector>> | null>
