Installation

Prerequisites

• Python 3.10+

• MicroStrategy 2019 Update 4 (11.1.4)+

Install mstrio-py Package

Note: it is NOT recommended to install mstrio-py in an Anaconda environment. For a seamless experience, install and run it in Python’s virtual environment instead.

Install latest version of mstrio-py using pip command in Terminal:

pip install mstrio-py

To install a specific, archived version of mstrio, choose the desired version available on PyPI package archive and install with pip, as follows:

pip install mstrio-py==10.11.1

Issues or specific use cases

If there are any issues with the installation process it is possible your setup may differ from usual. In that case, please see below some examples of most common situations and how to resolve them.

In all other cases, please refer to the official Python libraries installation guide.

Offline System or Proxy with Blacklisted PyPI

Note: optimally, you should contact your system administrator and either request access to PyPI or some proxy setup whitelisting all or some of the PyPI libraries.

If your setup does not allow to get packages online directly from Python Packages Index (PyPI) using pip, you can download the package manually and install it locally.

1. download .whl file from here: https://pypi.org/project/mstrio-py/#files

2. in the terminal cd into a folder where you want to install mstrio-py

3. use the command provided below after filling the path

   • py -m tells the terminal to use default install execution of python available locally on the machine

   • --user flag says “install only for my user on this machine”

4. If you have issues with py command, try the same with python instead

cd path/where/mstrio/will/be/installed
py -m pip install --user path/to/downloaded/wheel/file/mstrio-py.whl

No Python or pip Installed on the Machine

You cannot use mstrio-py without Python installed on your machine unless directly via Strategy Workstation.
