Just like the previous post Resolve: No module named apiclient.discovery in Python this time being:

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'oauth2client'

Prerequisites

• pip

Solution

Step 2. Install the oauth2client module.

pip install --upgrade oauth2client

Note(s):

• If the above command doesn’t work, try adding sudo in front.
• Or, even replace pip with pip3.
• oauth2client is long since deprecated, so consider replacing it with google-auth: pip install --upgrade google-auth.

The solution works too for the following errors as well:

ImportError: No module named oauth2client.service_account
ImportError: No module named oauth2client.client
