    Hey @HamidBee 

     

    If possible you can make an API, run the script from that.

    With the help of HTTP action you can run the API.

    Hi @Sundeep_Malik. This is an interesting method but it would be too advanced for me to do. I have no experience creating APIs. Do you have a tutorial I could follow?. Just out of curiosity is it free? because I assume it's something that is hosted. I did read somewhere on the forum where using an Azure function was also suggested but I imagine that would cost money.

    I also don't have experience making APIs.

    Yes they are hosted, so might cost. Btw just google, but I am sure hosting api won't be free. 

    Though for my current project I learnt how to make mock APIs, but they are not even near making a real API. It's just a practice when the project is in POC or prototyping.
