Same error here, I had to fix this line input_field = self.browser.find_element("xpath", "//input[contains(@name,'phoneNumber')]")

for this

input_field = self.browser.find_element(By.CSS_SELECTOR, "input.artdeco-text-input--input[type='text']")

@lucasloboguerrero Unfortunately, that didn't work for me, it just put in my phone number into the field for first name.

swapping:

upload_locator = (By.CSS_SELECTOR, "button[aria-label='DOC, DOCX, PDF formats only (5 MB).']")

and:

sibling = parent.find_element(By.XPATH, "preceding-sibling::*[1]")

worked out for me.

I have the input_field defined as below:

input_field = self.browser.find_element(By.CSS_SELECTOR, "input.artdeco-text-input--input[type='text']")

lmk if this works out for you.
