    As you mentioned, Power Automate Desktop (PAD) supports executing Python scripts using Python 3.4  and 2.7 only.

    So if we attempting to use Python 3.11 with PAD have encountered compatibility issues. 

    Recommendations:

    • If you must use Python 3.11, consider running your scripts externally and integrating them with PAD using the "Run PowerShell Script" action or similar methods. This approach allows you to execute Python 3.11 scripts outside of PAD's native environment.

    As @Deenuji_Loganathan_ mentioned its better to run python scripts using Run Powershell script action. 
     
    As of my observation to execute Python script in PAD, Run Python script action is not that feasible and it only supports 3.4 and 2.7 versions and few modlues are not supporting with that action.
     
    So try this method to run the Python script using PAD.
     
    Save the Python script as .py file and use Run PowerShell Script action and pass the path as shown in below image.
     
     
    (Note:- if you got your solution you can mark as solution and gives kudos)
