What should I do if the 'fyers-api' installation does not resolve my issue?

If installing the fyers-api package doesn't resolve your issue, the problem might be related to environment conflicts or outdated dependencies. Setting up a clean Python virtual environment often helps isolate and fix these issues.

Steps to create a virtual environment and reinstall

  1. Create a virtual environment
    python3 -m venv env
  2. Activate the virtual environment
    • On macOS/Linux:
      source env/bin/activate
    • On Windows:
      .\env\Scripts\activate
  3. Install the API package
    pip install fyers-apiv3

Why this works?

A virtual environment ensures:

  • A clean, isolated workspace free from conflicting packages
  • The correct version of fyers-apiv3 and its dependencies

What if...

ScenarioResolution
Installation succeeds but import failsConfirm the environment is activated and you’re running the script from within it.
Virtual environment still doesn’t helpTry uninstalling and reinstalling with pip uninstall fyers-apiv3 followed by a fresh install.
Always verify that you're using the correct Python interpreter associated with the virtual environment before running your script.
