Using the Camelot package in the python tool.

Question

Hello,

I'm having issues using Camelot in the python tool. My Alteryx version is 2022.3.1.486. I'm trying to replicate the output from this site.

When trying to run my program, I get this error: "AttributeError: module 'camelot' has no attribute 'read_pdf'".

My code is (file path removed):

import camelot

tables = camelot.read_pdf("file path")

df=tables[0].df

Alteryx.write(df,1)

I'm thinking the package is outdated and a newer one needs to be installed. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Thank you but this post states the same way that I used to install camelot in Alteryx. Unfortunately, that doesn't solve my issue.
