Unless there is a recommended alternative method of accessing the firecloud API from R, please install the firecloud Python library. For R notebooks that access workspace, data, the approach we have used in the past is to use reticulate to call into the Python library.

I can see that the Python Dockerfile includes:
&& pip3 install --ignore-installed firecloud==0.16.25 \
would be great if the R Dockerfile did the same.
Installing
reticulatein the R image would be helpful here as well.
