Must be a stupid config issue, but when I am trying to run a script, I get the following error:

> import syside  
> ModuleNotFoundError: No module named ‘syside’

Hello Jean-Michel,

Thank you for reporting your issue.  
This error happens when Syside Automator python library is not installed.

Are you trying to run this script in Syside Could or on your own computer?

Best regards,  
Simas

In that case you should follow the Syside Automator installation instructions here : [Install Automator](https://docs.sensmetry.com/automator/install.html#automator-install)

Let me know if you experience any issues during the installation.
