$ python --version
Python 3.5.2

Normally can I upgrade clients Python version in Azure, or can I upgrade Python version inside the venv?

You can't install it cause you are using python 3.5.2, and the minimum version of python that supports fastapi is python 3.6. You should use a Venv using at least python3.6 if you can't upgrade the version of python on azure

@scheung38 You can install a later version of python and use venv in the Azure shell

cd
wget https://www.python.org/ftp/python/3.8.1/Python-3.8.1.tar.xz -O Python-3.8.1.tar.xz
tar -xvf Python-3.8.1.tar.xz
cd Python-3.8.1
./configure --prefix=/home/$USER/.python --enable-optimizations
make && make install

This will install python in your home ~/.python dir and you can enable setup venv in your preferred folder.
