How to extract linkedin companies URL from linkedin search using python

I'm trying to scrap company's profile URL from a LinkedIn search but I got "not found". Every things worked well in my code here it is:

import requests 
import csv
import time
import numpy
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
from time import sleep
from selenium import webdriver
import pandas as pd
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys
import time
import re





# Read the keywords from a file
with open("keywords.txt", "r") as file:
  keywords = file.read().splitlines()

# Define the User-Agent header
edgedriver_path = '/path/to/edgedriver'
options = webdriver.EdgeOptions()
options.add_argument("--start-maximized")
driver = webdriver.Edge(options=options, executable_path=edgedriver_path)
driver.implicitly_wait(10)
driver.get('https://www.linkedin.com/login')


email_input = driver.find_element(By.ID, 'username')
password_input = driver.find_element(By.ID, 'password')
email_input.send_keys('*************')
password_input.send_keys('*************')
password_input.send_keys(Keys.ENTER)
time.sleep(10)



# Create a new CSV file and write the headers
with open("results.csv", "w", newline="") as file:
  writer = csv.writer(file)
  writer.writerow(["Keyword", "Total Results"])

# Perform the search for each keyword and write the results in CSV file
for keyword in keywords:
    URL = 'https://www.linkedin.com/search/results/companies/?keywords=' + keyword
    driver.get(url=URL)
    driver.implicitly_wait(5)
    soup = BeautifulSoup(driver.page_source, "html.parser")
    a_href = soup.find_all('a', {'class':'app-aware-link '})
    if a_href:
        link= link.get('href')
        writer.writerow([keyword, link])
        print(f"Keyword: {keyword}, linkedin: {link}")
    else:
        writer.writerow([keyword, "Not found"])
        print(f"Keyword: {keyword}, linkedin: Not found")

The problem is in # Perform the search for each keyword and write the total number of results to the CSV file party. I don't how to use href, a, class and find all to get url of the first result. for example if search for meta the result should be https://www.linkedin.com/company/meta/

Confusion between commands.Bot and discord.Client | Which one should I use?

Whenever you look at YouTube tutorials or code from this website there is a real variation. Some developers use client = discord.Client(intents=intents) while the others use bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="something", intents=intents) . Now I know slightly about the difference but I get errors from different places from my code when I use either of them and its confusing. Especially since there has a few changes over the years in discord.py it is hard to find the real difference. I tried sticking to discord.Client then I found that there are more features in commands.Bot . Then I found errors when using commands.Bot . An example of this is: When I try to use commands.Bot client = commands.Bot(command_prefix=">",intents=intents) async def load(): for filename in os.listdir("./Cogs"): if filename.endswith(".py"): client.load_extension(f"Cogs.{filename[:-3]}") The above doesnt giveany response from my Cogs ...
