Tried to follow https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/open-datasets/dataset-covid-19-open-research?tabs=azureml-opendatasets. I'm using python 3.10. at the step "mount = cord19_dataset.mount()" , got error:

"cannot import name 'PyMountOptions' from 'azureml.dataprep.rslex'

Answer 1

The BlockBlobService class has been deprecated and removed in the newer versions of the azure-storage-blob package. Instead, you should use the BlobServiceClient class from the azure-storage-blob package.
