How do you view the active Conda environment in VSCode?

Question

I have 3 Conda environments set up (in addition to the base environment).

In VSCode you can easily select a Conda environment as your Python interpreter.

Great!
But the name shown isn't specific to the environment, just the interpreter.

How do you get this to show something like Anaconda Python 3.7.0 [environment-2] ?

Answer 1

This is probably due to the fact that when you installed Anaconda you left it off of your PATH . This is a known issue .

Answer 2

I'm not sure the exact date it happened but this feature is now launched. 🎉💥
