I am using azure ML to run an python code in a jupyter notebook using tensorflow. I'm using "Python 3.6 - Azure ML" and an instance of azure compute to run it. It's showing tensorflow version as 2.1.0 .When I run the same code using VS Code connected to azure portal remotely, it's shows tensorflow version as 2.5.0. Why this discrepency?

Also I need tensorflow version 2.3.0 or up but there is not way for me to upgrade that using azure ml portal. Any help will be appreciated. Thank you!

    @M J I think the discrepancy is because the notebook is using a different environment with the kernel Python 3.6 - Azure ML. You can install the required version of tensorflow or any package with pip install from a new cell in the notebook.

    !pip install tensorflow==2.3.0

    This should help you use this environment from the notebook. Thanks.
