Running Python 3.7

[GoldenDesign04]

I have a project that will require using an existing python application developed by our DSci department. It's a handy mahalanobis distance model script that would take too long for me to replicate in Alteryx tools at least as I can see since the model is a bit more advanced than the baseline Mahalanobis.

The script is packaged nicely into a library that can be called and installed from Git. However the dependencies all require Python 3.7 instead of the 3.8.5 that is standard in the current version of Alteryx.

My question then is how to run an older version of Python, the requisite versions of the supporting libraries to call and run this library in  Alteryx.
