Have you tried an HTTP request action with Pythonanywhere?
It should be possible.

Hi VswaldB ,
I think costa86 is using Power Automate Desktop rather than Power Automate cloud fow.
In PAD it's rather easy to excute python script. You can use the way as mentioned by costa86 or if it's just simple script you can also chooose action "Run Python script" by directly input your codes there.

Re: Execute python script from Power Automate Flow

Thanks a lot for your help, but I can't seem to find an action called "run power shell script"...do you by any chance know where I did wrong?

Re: Execute python script from Power Automate Flow

No need for that. The python script runs locally, being executed by power shell solely.
1.Create a variable, let us say "x", and store the path to your python script in it.
2.Use the "run power shell script" action, and type "python %x%" inside it.

Use "run powershell script" instead, then type "python %pyFile%" (no quotes) in it.
