Can Power Automate run simple R code still?

Hey everyone so someone asked a question and I think I have a solution for. 

https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/Using-Connectors/How-to-list-more-than-100-files-in-Google-Drive-Connector/m-p/2025865#M17516 


I would need to run very basic low level R code to create a better connector than the one currently available for google drive.

 

The function would take into 2 variables:

  • the Credentials for a scope-limited google service account password exceeding 4096 to 16384 character long.  Either the password or .json are change at regular intervals.   Essentially I am setting up the google equivalent of the Managed Instance User that Microsoft uses to connect a local and online Active Directory together. 
  • Either a search term of for a url

Then output the data needed.  This is a pretty typical technique used when a vendor does not provide the proper connector for a given datasource. 

 

Can we run low level R or Python in Power Automate?
