Import installed CPLEX into Anaconda

I want to call

import cplex

in a Jupyter notebook (Python 3) opened from Anaconda.

I have CPLEX already installed in my computer, and this is called by MATLAB, etc. However, I can not import this to Anaconda. In the webpage of CPLEX, it says I should run:

python setup.py install

but this does not install cplex in Anaconda.

Also in Anaconda Cloud website it says I can just install

conda install -c ibmdecisionoptimization cplex

but as I said I have CPLEX already and I don't want to install it again. How can I import cplex to a jupyter notebook?

What exactly are the issues your are facing? I guess you get an import error that states that a cplex module cannot be found?

The folder that contains the CPLEX libraries must be listed in the PYTHONPATH environment variable. Try adding that folder to PYTHONPATH.
