    What is your goal? Are you trying to build your own custom apps?

    Hi Ben,

    No, 
    but the apps at https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/ need to run over 3 or over 2.7 

    and thie message appear on APPHost Console " DEPRECATION: Python 2.7 reached the end of its life on January 1st, 2020. Please upgrade your Python as Python 2.7 is no longer maintained. pip 21.0 will drop support for Python 2.7 in January 2021. More details about Python 2 support in pip can be found at https://pip.pypa.io/en/latest/development/release-process/#python-2-support pip 21.0 will remove support for this functionality. "


    Thanks

    I'm not certain about Python 2/3 support on the appliance.

    However most of the apps on the AppExchange run inside an AppHost. The apps are downloaded from the AppExchange and installed via the GUI of the SOAR application. They are self contained container images. So it is typically not necessary to worry about the Python versions.
