Hi Anonymous ,

 

Whatever is the path for Python on your machine, the same should be in Power BI. That's what I have at my end.

If your python path is "C:/Python" then in POwer BI under File --> Option & Settings --> Options --> Python Scripting same "C:/Python" path should be there.

If it still doesn't work, try from scratch again in Power BI.

 

Also, is there any other Python folder under this path "C:/Python" like "C:/Python/Python36". If yes then your correct path should be "C:/Python/Python36"

 

If this helps and resolves the issue, appreciate a Kudos and mark it as a Solution! 🙂

 

Thanks,

Pragati
