You can choose which version of Python to run Shotgun Desktop under. When running the Advanced Project Setup in Python 3 mode, projects will be configured to use the built-in Python 3 interpreter. Note that once setup, a project configured with Python 3 can still be used by a user running a Python 2 version of Shotgun Desktop and vice-versa.
To select which version of Python to use on startup, set the SHOTGUN_PYTHON_VERSION environment variable to 2 or 3.
If you do not have a custom site configuration, no steps need to be taken. Shotgun Desktop comes packaged with the latest versions of all our components out of the box.
If you have customized your site configuration and/or project configurations, make sure that they have the most recent versions of the following packages:
We currently support the following products in Python 3 mode:
Note that to launch a given product in Python 3 mode, you will need to modify the software entities in Shotgun. See your content creation software's command-line arguments to find which command-line arguments launch it in Python 3 mode. You'll also need to update apps and engines in your configuration for Python3 compatible versions.
For an up to date list of Toolkit bundles and products supported with Python 3, see this list.
Provided the code has been ported to Python 3 and is targeting Python 3.7.x, they should work. If you've never ported an application to Python 3, we've documented the process we've used to port our code to Python 3.
