# $$

The `$$` command is a short and handy way in order to fetch multiple elements on the page. It returns a `ChainablePromiseArray` containing a set of WebdriverIO elements.

info

As opposed to the [`$$`](/docs/api/browser/$$.md) attached to the [browser object](/docs/api/browser.md) this command queries elements based on a root element.

You can chain `$` or `$$` together without wrapping individual commands into `await` in order to walk down the DOM tree, e.g.:

```
const imageSrc = await $$('div')[1].nextElement().$$('img')[2].getAttribute('src')
```

WebdriverIO seamlessly traverses shadow roots when using the `$` or `$$` commands, regardless of the nesting level or shadow root mode, for example:

```
await browser.url('https://ionicframework.com/docs/usage/v8/datetime/basic/demo.html?ionic:mode=md')
await browser.$('button[aria-label="Sunday, August 4"]').click()
 await browser.$('.aux-input').getValue()
```

It is also possible to use async iterators to loop over the result of the query, e.g.:

```
// print all image sources
for await (const img of $$('img')) {
  console.log(await img.getAttribute('src'))
}
```

The result also provides asynchronous versions of the `Array` iteration methods, like `map` and `mapSeries`. See [Iterating over elements](/docs/api/browser/$$.md#iterating-over-elements) for how they work.
