Hi Prabhakaran Haribaskar,

Thank you for posting this query in Microsoft Q&A Platform.

This error indicates that package azure.mgmt.datashare is not installed in your environment. Kindly try below steps.

You can install the package by running the following command in your terminal or command prompt:

pip install azure-mgmt-datashare

If above not helps, then try updating the package by running the following command:

pip install --upgrade azure-mgmt-datashare

If above not helps, then try uninstalling and reinstalling the package by running the following commands:

pip uninstall azure-mgmt-datashare 
pip install azure-mgmt-datashare

If above not helps, then try installing the package using a different version by running the following command:

pip install azure-mgmt-datashare=={version}

If above not helps, then installing the package using a different package manager, such as conda, by running the following command.

conda install azure-mgmt-datashare

Hope this helps. Please let me know how it goes.
