I am trying to install quandl to use in Jupyter notebook. py -m pip install quandl

But I get the following error that SSL module in Python is not available. 

Collecting quandl

I tried using the following, but nothing worked

```py -m pip install --trusted-host=pypi.org --trusted-host=files.pythonhosted.org --user quandl```

  • Has anyone got a viable answer for this issue? I am experiencing the same issue with both an OSGeo4W64 installation and a QGIS 3.10 ltr installation. I have plugins that require third party packages and I am unable to install them. – CNIDog Feb 18 '20 at 21:32

If you are using Anaconda, then add the following in environment paths:-

D:\Anaconda3; 
D:\Anaconda3\Scripts; 
D:\Anaconda3\Library\bin;

  • I have seen this posted elsewhere. I added this in "System Environment Variables" under "PATH". But it is not working. Is that the correct way? Or are you saying add to Conda/Anaconda? – Steve Gon Feb 01 '20 at 19:27

    You need to restart the terminal/command prompt after you edit the environment path. – Rohit Patil Feb 02 '20 at 08:43
  • Thanks Rohit. I did that. Still getting the same error: WARNING: pip is configured with locations that require TLS/SSL, however the ssl module in Python is not available. – Steve Gon Feb 03 '20 at 17:03

    Sadly, this is not an answer if Anaconda is not part of the installation. What if it was installed as part of QGIS? Or OSGeo4W64? I have no issues at all with a standard Python 3.7 installation, but cannot pip install anything in the QGIS interpreter due to this error. Adding the interpreter paths (ex: `C:\Program Files\QGIS 3.10\apps\Python37\Scripts`) did nothing to fix the problem. – CNIDog Feb 18 '20 at 21:15

Try reinstalling python in the directory where you intend to install pip.

Then install pip and you should be good to go.
