Can you be more specific? How did you install the `requests` module? How are you “running” it? What output do you get? Please copy/paste output text between code fences in your reply, eg: ```` ``` your output text goes here ``` ```` There’s a `` button in the compose menu to make such a section. The usual reason for this is that you have installed the `requests` module in a diferent Python that the Python you’reusing to “run” it.

Please copy/paste the complete _text_, not a screenshot. Screenshots cannot be copy/pasted as text and are a problem for people using the email interface and the visually impaired. We like the entire traceback and the command which was issued to cause it. I notice there’s a `.vscode` in you file path. Are you using VSCode? Maybe the `requests` package has not been installing in the Python which VSCode is using. I believe it has a menu to select a Python interpreter and might have one for installing packagings into whichever interpreter you’re using.

If you’re running a script by running `python script.py`, try running `python -m pip install requests` to install it in that python environment ---
