ViewsHow to update Python on Vertex AI notebooks?
I am working in notebooks provided in the Workbench section of Vertex AI. I need an updated version of Python, but I only have access to Python 3.7 in these notebooks. I have successfully followed these steps and if I run python3.8 --version, I get Python 3.8.2, which is good, but python --version still returns Python 3.7.12. If, following this answer and restarting notebook's kernel, I run
from platform import python_version
print(python_version())
I get 3.7.12.
How do I get a notebook in Vertex AI supporting an up-to-date Python version?

#create a new conda env:
$ conda create -n python38 python=3.8
#Activate your new Python 3.8 environment:
$ conda activate python38
#install ipykernel when logged in the new env:
(python38)$ conda install ipykernel
Refresh the page and the new python38 env will be avaiable:
