To specify a specific version of the pytube package in your Python code, you can use the pipedream.pypi.pip_install() function. However, you should use it within a Python code step in a Pipedream workflow, not as an import statement. Here’s an example: import pipedream pipedream.pypi.pip_install("pytube==12.0") # Your code using the pytube package Add this code to a Python code step in your Pipedream workflow, and it will install the specified version of the pytube package.

the code you provide does not work

import pipedream

pipedream.pypi.pip_install("pytube==12.0")

I apologize for the confusion earlier. It seems I misunderstood your question. If you want to specify a specific version of the pytube package in your Python code, you should use pip to install the package with the desired version. You can do this in your terminal or command prompt: bash pip install pytube==12.0 After installing the specific version, you can use it in your Python code: ```
import pytube # Your code using the pytube package

i dont think it’s possible to run pip in pipedream?

14

could you try Pipedream magic comment

# pipedream add-package pytube==12.0
15

Or

# pipedream add-package pytube@12.0
16

still the same…

17

tried both command

18

Then I think it is not possible to specify the python package version. I would recommend to the latest version, or use another library if you can’t
