Python Module Not Found Error

Python Module Not Found Error for Matplotlib despite matplotlib being one of the default libraries.

 

I have miniconda3 installed. How do I set up a powerbi python environment and install different libraries only it. I would have assumed that matplotlib (being a default library) would be able to install itself at runtime or within powerBi desktop?

 

Cheers,

Jake

HI @jake_beardo,

These dependence libraries/models could not install automatically, you need to manually download them and move them to the folder that you configured in the power bi desktop settings. After these steps, power bi can recognize these additional contents.
