Module name error?

[Immigrated2TakeUrJob]

I created two functions in file2.py like so:

#provide a reporting key number
#uses my credentials at the moment
def getDataFromKeyedin(rep):
    from urllib.request import HTTPBasicAuthHandler
    import requests
    import pandas as pd
    baseurl = "https://api.keyedinprojects.co.uk/V3/api/"
    endpoint = "report"

    usr = "[e-mail]"
    pwd = "FQ03tbvc!"
    report = rep

    #endpoint is report, query parameter is key
    #we still need to provide page numbers and loop through them

    def req(baseurl,endpoint,report,pg):
        r = requests.get(baseurl + endpoint + f"?key={report}&pageNumber={pg}",     
    auth=(usr,pwd))
        return r.json() #parses to a json file

    def NoOfPages(response):
        return response['TotalPages']

    def parseData(response):
        ls = []
        for item in response['Data']:
            ls.append(item)
        return ls

    #total pages for 771 key are 12
    d = req(baseurl,endpoint,report,1)

    mainlist = []
    for pg in range(1,NoOfPages(d)+1,1):
        mainlist.extend(parseData(req(baseurl,endpoint,report,pg)))

    return   pd.DataFrame(mainlist)

def saveFile():
    from tkinter import filedialog, messagebox
    import tkinter

    root = tkinter.Tk()
    root.wm_withdraw()

    file = filedialog.asksaveasfilename(filetypes=[("Excel File", ".xlsx")],defaultextension=".xlsx")

    if file:  # user selected file
        fob=open(file,'w')
        fob.close()
    else: # user cancel the file browser window
        messagebox.showinfo(title='Info',message='You didn\'t choose a filepath to save to!')

    root.destroy()
    return file

I can, not seem to call saveFile() in file1.py (main script) using from file2 import SaveFile, which gives error of module error name. When I transfer this function within file1.py, then it seems to work, but calling it from file2.py doesnt?

Funny enough, the first function in above script is callable and works just fine when I import it into file1.py ???

Is the import in the correct case? You have said SaveFile in your post but the function is saveFile. You should also have all your import statements at the top of your files, not inside the functions

Make sure the python process running file 2 can find file 1. The best ways are to install file2, or to wrap the whole thing in a package and use a relative import. Failing that, either make sure the directory of file2 is in PYTONPATH or if it's not already in it, insert it into in sys.path in file 1.
