Unable to import python requests in VSCode

Question

I read this in addition to MANY other things: Importing requests module does not work

I am using VSCode and python 3.8. I am able to import it seems any library except "requests" Given the ages of the previous posts I hope to know what a good current next step could be, please and thank you

import math
import asynchat
import signal
import importlib
import requests  <-----Will NOT import

response = requests.get("http://api.open-notify.org/astros.json" [api.open-notify.org])

print(response.text)
print(response)

which operating system you are using? Have you tried `pip install requests` or `pip3 install requests` ? — Anubhav Gupta, Jul 20 '21 at 00:45
You can use `pip list` to see whether request installed or not. — shiratori3, Jul 20 '21 at 01:03
Is there another method without using pip as the pip is NOT an option at this time. — Landscaper3345, Jul 20 '21 at 17:04
I reviewed https://stackoverflow.com/questions/11091623/how-to-install-packages-offline. the 'requests' lib is installed it seems vscode just cant link to it. I also checked my system PATH variables. — Landscaper3345, Jul 20 '21 at 17:29

I think your requests is not well installed. Make sure it's installed with the python you are using with.

Try pip3 install requests.
