    In the case of the URL

    https://console.us-ashburn-1.oraclecloud.com/

    where it pops up to accept cookies, I try to click the button element to allow/deny cookies

    //div[@class="pdynamicbutton"]//a[@class="call"]

    but it is not seen.

    When I use

    switch_to.frame('trustarcNoticeFrame')

    It still does not find it.

    Not sure how i can get at these buttons for login.

    The HTML tag for the iframe has a number of properties which you can use to locate the element with the webdriver.

    <iframe src="https://consent-pref.trustarc.com/?type=oracle7&amp;site=oracle.com&amp;action=notice&amp;country=ie&amp;locale=en&amp;behavior=expressed&amp;gtm=1&amp;layout=default_eu&amp;irm=undefined&amp;from=https://consent.trustarc.com/" 
id="pop-frame07633610403275147" 
title="TrustArc Cookie Consent Manager" 
tabindex="1" 
scrolling="no" 
class="truste_popframe" 
name="trustarc_cm"></iframe>

    Find the iframe using its title property:

    from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By

iframe = driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "//iframe[@title='TrustArc Cookie Consent Manager']")

    Alternatively, use the name property to locate the iframe:

    iframe = driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "//iframe[@name='trustarc_cm']")

    With a reference to the iframe, switch the webdriver frame and click the button:

    driver.switch_to.frame(iframe)
btn = driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "//div[@class='pdynamicbutton']/a[@class='call']")
btn.click()
