After running pip install python-telegram-bot, I'm getting this error that the 'telegram' module is not found.

Under pip list I see that my python-telegram-bot package is installed version 13.2

Is anyone else getting this error?

  • Indeed it might be due to different Python installation. I am using Mac which comes with python 2. I installed a separate python using brew and I forgot about it. If you install python using brew, you can check the location of python binary using "brew list python@3.9". – user3204765 Mar 10 '21 at 09:53

Try another way to install it

first remove it pip3 uninstall python-telegram-bot

Clone and install

git clone https://github.com/python-telegram-bot/python-telegram-bot
cd python-telegram-bot
python3 setup.py install
pip3 install python-telegram-bot

It should work

I also had this problem - for me the issue was that I was trying to run my code from a module called telegram.py. Newbie mistake I know...

pip3 install python-telegram-bot

Install it in outside of virutal environment in terminal. Also unintall telegram. python-telegram-bot is sufficient for Telegram bot. In my case it resolved my issue.

Do 1-2 via terminal and 4 on your IDE:

Install pip install telegram Install pip install python-telegram-bot If you are using a virtual environment, make sure it is activated Lastly, **import from telegram.ext import ***

I had the same problem, this is how I solved it:

  1. Open Windows PowerShell as an administrator.
  2. Run the following command: Get-ExecutionPolicy.
  3. If the previous command shows it is set to restricted, change it to allow remote sign using Set-ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned.
  4. Open your terminal and run pip install python-telegram-bot to install the bot again.
