I got the following error:
from azure.storage.blob import BlockBlobService
ImportError: cannot import name 'BlockBlobService'
when trying to run my python project using command prompt. (The code seems to work when i execute it directly from anaconda navigator.)
I am using Python 3.6.4 for Anaconda. Running pip freeze
gives me the following:
azure-nspkg==2.0.0
azure-storage-blob==1.1.0
azure-storage-common==1.1.0
azure-storage-nspkg==3.0.0
azurepython3==1.7.7
There is no need to install the entire azure
package.
I believe you are using the new azure-storage-blob
library, but since BlockBlobService
is from the old azure-storage
library, to continue using it, you need to pip uninstall azure-storage-blob
if you have installed the new library by accident, and then pip install azure-storage
to install the old library.
If you would like to use the new library or cannot do the above, feel free to refer to my answer here which details the context and full instructions of using either the new azure-storage-blob
library or the old azure-storage
library.
