Unable to import python splunk-sdk and splunklib packages.

Unable to import splunk-sdk  and splunklib python. Here are the error's I'm getting while importing. Any suggestions? 

splunklib:

error: command 'C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Microsoft Visual Studio\\2022\\BuildTools\\VC\\Tools\\MSVC\\14.39.33519\\bin\\HostX86\\x64\\cl.exe' failed with exit code 2
[end of output]

note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip.

splunk-sdk :

@Prathyusha891 - FYI splunklib doesn't come built in with Splunk. In your App you need to put the Splunklib explicitly, mostly in the bin folder of your App.

pip install splunk-sdk --target ./bin

I hope this helps!!! Kindly upvote if it does!!!
