This is my first post. I run the following: Win 10 Anaconda with Python 3.6.5 Bloomberg Anywhere
I am trying to use the blpapi (bloomberg professional API) for Python. Downloaded the Desktop API package (with C++ libraries), downloaded blpapi-3.9.1-cp36-cp36m-win_amd64.whl installer file and ran it succesfully. Finally I added the C:\..\C++API\v3.11.6.1\bin to my path in both user and environment variables (from earlier query here on stackoverflow):
Python 2.7 with Bloomberg API import blpapi failure
My error message when running import blpapi:

Does someone know what the problem might be?
