Python does not recognize the path of the folder to run script

Hello, I'm trying to run a python script in power BI for null data cleanup. However, power bi is linked to a folder. When I squeet the script it does not recognize.

 

ERRO: Formula.Firewall: Query 'Transform Sample File' ('Run Python script' step) references other queries or steps, so you may not have direct access to a data source. Rebuild this combination of data.
