If none of the above solutions work for you  consider if you might have installed python through Anaconda  If this is the case then installing the google API library with conda might fix it   Run   python --version   If you get something like  Python 3 6 4    Anaconda  Inc    Then try   conda install google-api-python-client   As bgoodr has pointed out in a comment you might need to specify the channel  think repository  to get the google API library  At the time of writing this means running the command   conda install -c conda-forge google-api-python-client   See more at https   anaconda org conda-forge google-api-python-client

apiclient was the original name of the library  At some point  it was switched over to be googleapiclient   If your code is running on Google App Engine  both should work   If you are running the application yourself  with the google-api-python-client installed  both should work as well   Although  if we take a look at the source code of the apiclient package s   init   py module  we can see that the apiclient module was simply kept around for backwards-compatibility      Retain apiclient as an alias for googleapiclient    So  you really should be using googleapiclient in your code  since the apiclient alias was just maintained as to not break legacy code     bad from apiclient discovery import build    good from googleapiclient discovery import build

The same error can be seen if you are creating a Python module and your executing the script after installing it via pip or pipx command  In this case ensure you have declared what the project minimally needs to run correctly into install requires section of your setup py file  so in this case  install requires        quot google-api-python-client gt  1 12 3 quot        quot google-auth-httplib2 gt  0 0 4 quot        quot google-auth-oauthlib gt  0 4 1 quot

apiclient is not in the list of third party library supplied by the appengine runtime  http   developers google com appengine docs python tools libraries27    You need to copy apiclient into your project directory  amp  you need to copy these uritemplate  amp  httplib2 too   Note  Any third party library that are not supplied in the documentation list must copy to your appengine project directory

I got this same error when working on a project to parse recent calendar events from Google Calendar   Using the standard install with pip did not work for me  here is what I did to get the packages I needed   Go directly to the source  here is a link for the google-api-python-client  but if you need a different language it should not be too different   https   github com google google-api-python-client  Click on the green  Clone or Download  button near the top left and save it as a zip file  Move the zip to your project folder and extract it there  Then cut all the files from the folder it creates back into the root of your project folder   Yes  this does clutter your work space  but many compilers have ways to hide files   After doing this the standard  from googleapiclient import discovery   works great   Hope this helps

Make sure you only have google-api-python-client installed  If you have apiclient installed  it will cause a collision  So  run the following   sudo pip uninstall apiclient
