# ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'oauthlib'

TL;DR: run `pip install oauthlib`. It usually arrives transitively via requests-oauthlib, so declare it directly.

```text
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'oauthlib'
```

## The fix

```
pip install oauthlib
```

Verify:
```
python -c "import oauthlib; print('ok')"
```
Expected output: ok.

## When this applies
- Fresh virtualenvs, containers, or CI runners.
- requests-oauthlib installed without its dependency resolving.
- The traceback shows oauthlib missing under an OAuth import.

## When it does NOT apply
- OAuth flow errors (bad grants, redirect mismatches) after the import works.
- `No module named 'requests_oauthlib'`, which is the client library missing.

## Why this happens
oauthlib does the OAuth protocol work while requests-oauthlib does the requests integration, so apps import the latter and forget the former exists. pip normally resolves it, but vendored installs, --no-deps installs, and broken lockfiles drop it. Direct declaration is the durable fix.

## Compatibility
oauthlib 3.x on all supported Pythons. Pure Python, no dependencies of its own.
