Azure SDK Python packages support for Python 2.7 is ending 01 January 2022
The Python Software Foundation (PSF) community announced the end of support of Python 2 "as of 01 January 2020, no new bug reports, fixes, or changes will be made to Python 2, and Python 2 is no longer supported." Starting with 01 January 2022, Azure SDK Python packages will no longer support Python 2.7. To continue to get new features and security updates, please make sure to update your Python runtime to Python 3.6+.
Recommended action
To avoid any potential issues in your applications, we recommend all developers upgrade to Python 3 as soon as you can. Please read the official "Porting Python 2 Code to Python 3" guide and the Python 3 Statement Practicalities with more detailed information.
Help and support
If you have questions, get answers from community experts on Stack Overflow. If you have issues, please open an issue against the SDK on GitHub.
Edit: Change baseline from 3.7 to 3.6. We plan at this moment to deprecate 3.6 in Jan 2023.
please make sure to update your Python runtime to Python 3.7+.
This indicates CentOS 7 which only has Python 3.6 is no longer supported (Azure/azure-cli#19858 (comment)).
