Remember to run import pandas_profiling before using it.

This should work for those who want to use the latest version:

Run pip uninstall pandas_profiling or conda uninstall pandas_profiling from anaconda prompt/command prompt
Run pip install https://github.com/pandas-profiling/pandas-profiling/archive/master.zip

If you're using something like a Jupyter Notebook/Jupyter Lab, be sure to restart your kernel and re-import your packages.

I hope this helps.

Try to run pip install pandas-profiling command in a separate cell in the jupyter notebook just before importing all the packages.

After this re-start your kernel and re-run the whole notebook again. This should give you the required profile report.

"pandas_profiling" comes as a pip packages. Have you installed the package..?

pip install pandas-profiling

or maybe you have installed the package in some virtual environment, not in your complete path.

See the link pandas-profiling

Yes I did check the installation using pip freeze command the package was installed successfully and I do not have a virtual environment. Is there a way I could provide the absolute path of this package in my program.

Yes. Pycharm removed the reference citing it could not able to locate the reference.
