Hi @Swapna_Sivalingam

> @tome.lourenco, welcome and thank you for posting. I am having a similar issue which I haven’t resolved yet. Somewhere in the forum I found this code: import sys import os sys.path.append(os.path.dirname(os.path.realpath(\_\_file\_\_))) which the post said to put just before the “import your-module-here” call. The reason given was that the software restriction in place make UiPath look for the py script in the activities directory. I will try your workaround as well. See e.g. [this post](https://forum.uipath.com/t/documentation-bug-for-python-activities/109708), [this one …](https://forum.uipath.com/t/python-activity-error/53409/83)
