    In the second picture, while in Phython environment, just type install pandas (no pip)

    Hi StacyBell2021 ,

     

    Please try:

    1. Please install all the packages that you are mentioning in the python script in Power BI, explicitly in Command Prompt.

    Open Command Prompt >  for example, type in " py -m pip install pandas" without quotes and then try running the py script in Power BI.

    2. This could be because the Python installation directory is not added to the system's PATH environment variable.

    You can use the command to add pip to your PATH variable from the command promptsetx.

    For example, if your Python version is 3.9, you can type:

    setx PATH "%PATH%;C:\Python39\Scripts"

    3.Open the Anaconda Prompt or Command Prompt as an administrator.

    cd C:\Python\

python -m pip install pandas

python -m pip install matplotlib

        Hi StacyBell2021 ,

         

        You can find out where Python is installed on your Windows machine by following these steps:

        1. Type Python in the Windows Search Bar.
        2. Right-click on the Python App, and then select “Open file location” .
        3. Right-click again on the Python shortcut, and then select “Properties”.
        4. You’ll now get the location/path where your Python is installed on Windows .
