## How to use

Import the content of [examples catalog](catalog.json) in your Automation Pilot tenant. Navigate to the *UseCustomPythonPackage* command and check the configuration of the *PythonScript* executor. You can also trigger the command to see it in action


## Method 2
The following method can also be used for installing additional packages from the python script runtime.

```sh
#!/usr/bin/env python3
import sys
import subprocess
subprocess.call('pip install requests --no-warn-script-location', shell=True, stdout=subprocess.PIPE) # Install the required package
result = subprocess.check_output("pip show requests | grep Location | cut -d ' ' -f 2-", shell=True) # Fetches the path for the installed package (to avoid hardcoding)
location = result.decode("utf-8").strip() # Convert bytes to string and remove leading/trailing spaces
sys.path.append('{}'.format(location)) # Adds the package path to the PATH variable
import requests # Now you can import the package in the same script
.. the rest of your code ..
```
