Selenium Chrome Driver: Javascript on click function. element not visible or nothing happens
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ height:90px;width:728px;box-sizing:border-box;
}
So I'm working on a script at work that automates VMWare's Airwatch token generation for MDM. It was functioning, but they updated the server/Airwatch Console and this javascript onclick function broke it. I've already searched through various forums and posts and have no luck getting it to work.
If I have selenium find the element and .click() on it, I get the not visible/not interactable error.
Currently, I have:
addButton=driver.find_element_by_css_selector("a.add.profile.small")
webdriver.ActionChains(driver).move_to_element(addButton).perform().click(addButton)
And no errors occur but it doesn't do anything.
When manually moving the mouse over the button it changes to a hand instead of the pointer and the button background color changes.
Here's a snippet of the element properties:
<a class="add profile small" onclick="F5_r2u();F5_Event_common(event);
try{return(eval(F5_Invoke_eval_event(null,F5_jsBody(function(){addTagRow(this);
}))))}finally{try{F5_Event_finally(event)}catch(e){}}">Add</a>
selector: #31 34364e7_Tag_Plural > a
xpath: //*[@id="134364e7_Tag_Plural"]/a
Any Advice?
Pretty sure I need to have Selenium hover over the button, then click on it, or execute the javascript. Not sure how to do that though.

when you switch from tab User to Tags it need to wait until ADD button visible
# click tab Tags
tabTags = driver.find_element_by_css_selector('tab.tags.selector').click()
# wait until visible
addButton = WebDriverWait(driver, 5).until(EC.presence_of_element_located((By.CSS_SELECTOR, 'a.add.profile.small')))
addButton.click()
using ActionChains maybe like this
tabTags = driver.find_element_by_css_selector('tab.tags.selector')
addButton = driver.find_element_by_css_selector("a.add.profile.small")
actions = webdriver.ActionChains(driver)
actions.click(tabTags)
actions.click(addButton)
actions.perform()

Should've stated this in the initial post, but I have an implicitlyWait set to 10 for the whole script

Still no luck. It gets a timeout error with the webDriverWait set to 20, and an element not interactable anytime I have it click on it without the webdriverwait
