ModuleNotfoundError: No module named ‘google.cloud.storage.retry’

If you have been coming across the following error message, you have come to the right place:

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named ‘google.cloud.storage.retry’

According to our experts, this error message is related to the Google Cloud Storage Python client library. It often occurs when we try to import the Retry module from the google.cloud.storage package, but Python cannot locate it.

The Retry module handles retry logic for the requests made to the Google Cloud Storage service. In fact, this is a part of the google-cloud-storage package, which in turn is a library that offers an easy-to-use interface to interact with Google Cloud Storage from Python.

Here are some of the common reasons behind the “ModuleNotFoundError”:

• The google-cloud-storage package is not installed:

  One of the most common causes behind the error is that the google-cloud-storage package is missing. In this scenario, we can install it via pip.
• Incorrect module name:

  If the module name is misspelled in the Python code, we are likely to run into the error. Hence, we have to make sure the module name is correctly spelled and matches the name of the module we are trying to import.
• The library version is incompatible:

  If the google-cloud-storage library version installed is not compatible with the version of Python we are using, we will run into ModuleNotFoundError.

If the above tips do not help, our experts suggest reinstalling the google-cloud-storage package or upgrading to a newer version of the library.
