Hi @kh100567,

Would you please share the Python script you used in Power BI desktop? Which data source do you read data from, is it CSV or other things?

Best Regards,
Qiuyun Yu

Hi Qiuyun Yu,

There is no Python script as I did not get chance to enter one as the error happened immediately after selection "Python

To replicate:

Open Power BI desktop
Select Home -> Get Data -> More...
In the 'Get Data' dialog, select 'Other -> Python script', and then click 'Connect'

A "Something went wrong" dialog is displayed. The details of the error are at the bottom.

Notes:

I am using Power BI desktop version 2.61.5192.601 64-bit (August 2018).
I updated from the prior version.
This error occurs on two different laptops.

Thanks,

Kevin

Hi @kh100567,

Please ensure you already installed Python on the machine which has Power BI desktop run and set the Python directory for Power BI desktop. You can download the latest Python version here: https://www.python.org/downloads/windows/
