I'm currently working on a project that requires me to use Elasticsearch version 7.0.2; however, though the pip-installed version of Elasticsearch is 7.0.2, when I check the version in my Jupyter notebook, it still says 8.1.2 -- I think the Conda version of Python is overriding this. How can I fix this?

Output from `pip show elasticsearch` in terminal:

```auto

Elasticsearch version 7.0 is [EOL](https://www.elastic.co/support/eol) and no longer supported. Please upgrade ASAP.

Solution: created a new conda environment altogether and installed the correct versions there.
