Run Python scripts return error

Dear all:

 

I am planning to run python script in the data source.

 

I followed up the tutorial on Power IB docs,

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/connect-data/desktop-python-scripts

 

I checked my python installation path in the option menu,

I test the python code from the above docs, but error out, says "No module named 'pandas'".

But I am 100% sure panda is installed as it is so common to have this package installed in python, I have also installed matplotlib pacakge as well.

Could you please help why Power Bi still error out says no pandas installed?

 

Thank you

Hi @wbo ,

ou can upgrade the Python , pandas and numpy to the latest version in cmd prompt or Anaconda prompt .

 

1.use cmd prompt below:

pip upgrade python

 

pip uninstall pandas
pip uninstall numpy
pip install pandas
pip install numpy

 

2.use conda prompt below:

conda upgrade python

 

conda install pandas

conda install numpy

 

There some similar cases you can refer to :
