python "Pyramid" library?

I'm starting to get the hang of the python tool in alteryx, but so far ive only used the packages that come pre-installed.

 

But now i'd like to use the pyramid library or the pmdarima library.. Does anyone know how that would be installed in Alteryx?.. And then if i do that, can it also be installed in a private gallery?

update:

i tried:  Package.installPackages("pmdarima")

it almost worked, but i got this error:

 

ERROR: Could not install packages due to an EnvironmentError: [WinError 5] Access is denied: 'c:\\program files\\alteryx\\bin\\miniconda3\\envs\\jupytertool_venv\\Lib\\site-packages\\webob'
Consider using the `--user` option or check the permissions.

 

im currently running the administrator version of alteryx designer.. but maybe i need to launch it as an administrator? (i dont have administrator credentials)

Hi @Matthew 

 

Yes.  To install python packages to c:\program files\... you need admin privileges.  That's one of the benefits of using the non-admin version of Designer.  It installs in c:\users\{UserName}\appdata, so you have complete freedom to modify it in any way.
