The cause is that the include file "Python.h" is required by Python to build or install python packages from source but the TIBCO Spotfire Analyst Python Interpreter does not have access to this out of the box.

Issue/Introduction
Attempting to build or install Python packages in TIBCO Spotfire Analyst results in the error "Cannot open include file: 'Python.h': No such file or directory". This can be addressed by copying the includes folder from an Open Source Python installation to the Spotfire Python Interpreter module folder.
Environment
All
Resolution
- Shut down TIBCO Spotfire Analyst.
- On the TIBCO Spotfire Analyst client machine, do an independent Open Source Python installation, using the same version as the Python Interpreter for your Spotfire Analyst client (for example, python interpreter 3.8.10 for Spotfire Analyst 11.4.0). Note: you can find that version number by looking at the Python Interpreter module in your Spotfire Modules folder, which is named Python Interpreter_[version number] - e.g. C:\Users\lizliu\AppData\Local\TIBCO\Spotfire\10.10.2\Modules\Python Interpreter_3.810.10300.14.
- From the Python installation folder, copy the "include" folder (for example, C:\Python381\include) and paste it into the TIBCO Spotfire Analyst Python Interpreter directory (for example: C:\Users\lizliu\AppData\Local\TIBCO\Spotfire\11.4\Modules\Python Interpreter_3.810.10300.14\python).
