I am trying to use run reticulate so that I can use google earth engine in R. After updating my r, my current script is completely useless unless I can figure some issues with it. When I run reticulate::py_install('earthengine-api==####) ( the '### are in place of the actual numbers that identify my account) I get this message:

==> WARNING: A newer version of conda exists. <== current version: 4.10.3 latest version: 4.11.0

Please update conda by running

$ conda update -n base -c defaults conda

However, when I run what r is telling me to run r doesnt recognize it. How do I update conda anyways?

The warning is suggesting you update Conda and the command it provides is a shell command, not an R one, which is why it does not work directly in R. Typically, one manages Conda via the shell, but if you only manage it through reticulate, then one can use the reticulate::conda_install command instead. It should be something like:

reticulate::conda_install(envname="base", packages="conda=4.11", channel="defaults")
