Current Python Version Compatible with Power BI

[iaaw100a]

Just wondering what the current version of Python will work with Power BI Desktop?  Also, should I install using Anaconda or just Python.  Thanks.

Hi @iaaw100a 

Yes the latest ver of Python will work.

You can use Anaconda (it's more complicated to set up and launch) but Microsoft recommend using the official distribution from Python.org
