I am working on a bot where I have to invoke a python script from StudioX and get the status if it completed successfully or not. Python Version 3.7.0 Project Structure is as below: InvokePy |–\> main.xaml |–\>main.py |–\>venv I have created a virtualenv ‘venv’ within which I have installed all the required python modules. I am trying to trigger main.py file from main.xaml file. The script works fine when i run the commands normally. Solutions Attempted but not working: 1. I have tried using Python Scope activity with path ‘venv\Scripts’ instead of normal python path 2. I tried activating the venv within the main.py file. But when I do this I have to import all the required modules for each method I invoke from main 3. Tried using Command Prompt Activities and gave the commands to trigger py script. This worked for a day but since then when I trigger this even after the script has completed executing it doesnt terminate and UiPath becomes Unresponsive. Commands exceuted: ```auto cd project_folder_path venv\Scripts\activate main.py ``` Is there anyway I can activate the venv and trigger py script from StudioX? Or trigger a .bat file? Any help is appreciated. ---

Hi, Have you tried executing simple Python scripts in StudioX, If so can you send that project file? I have tried on my own but, I don’t get any outputs also no errors too.
