Has anyone created / documented doing custom API calls to SharePoint Online FROM PowerApps?

I'm interested in particularly two scenarios (1) get all items with an odata filter generated from fields on the PowerApp, and (2) getting all fields of a particular item number. Also doing it from the context of the current user using the PowerApp.

This is specifically to address issues with list lookup threshold limits, and list view limits (that the out of the box connectors can't handle.

In flow, I can easily make these calls using the SharePoint HTTP action.

@Brentless

I guess I didn't realize that API calls got around the list view limits. Do you have a link to the SharePoint API documentation?

With direct API calls, there are tricks and ways to do it. I understand the SharePoint APIs quite well, I am looking for guides to do this type of connection from PowerApps.
