pip install tencentcloud-sdk-python-hcm

Common errors

error ImportError: cannot import name 'HcmClient' from 'tencentcloud.hcm.v20181106' ↓

cause Forgot to import from the correct submodule hcm_client, or used wrong API version.

fix

Use: from tencentcloud.hcm.v20181106 import hcm_client

error ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'tencentcloud.common' ↓

cause Missing the common dependency package.

fix

Install the common package: pip install tencentcloud-sdk-python-common

Warnings

deprecated Older SDK versions (before 3.x) used a different import pattern under 'tencentcloud-sdk-python' package directly. Ensure you use the per-service package. ↓

fix Install tencentcloud-sdk-python-hcm instead of the monolithic tencentcloud-sdk-python.

gotcha The API version (v20181106) is part of the import path. Using the wrong version leads to ImportError. ↓

fix Always use v20181106 for HCM. If unsure, check the module list: pip show tencentcloud-sdk-python-hcm

gotcha Some users forget to import models, causing AttributeError when constructing requests. ↓

fix Always import models: from tencentcloud.hcm.v20181106 import models

Imports
