    Hi, is it possible to make the letters in each of Flow Runs' schematic smaller? Also, is it possible to somehow change the label in the schematic when I use case(something, True) to have something else than case(True) display in the schematic?

    We want to segregate our customer's flows by putting them each in a project, so we can drill down. We also want to filter out "test" flows from the dashboard so the errors do not show. What's the best way to accomplish this on cloud?

    Hi team, I am planning to store a config file on github using prefect github storage https://docs.prefect.io/api/latest/storage.html#github along with the flow file as below. The my_flow.py will refer to config params from the config file. I was wondering if the flow registers and runs will be able to handle this behavior and automatic updates to config file changes?

            my_flow.py

    Hello Everyone....Newbie to Slack and newbie to prefect as well. I am having an issue, probably simple, but can't solve it. I have a python prefect script that runs fine when I run from pyCharm or the CLI. I now want to get that script to run on the backend server and use the UI but having a problem. I have the backend server and UI installed and I can access that without any issues. I have created my first project there. I have modified my python script replacing flow.run(executor=DaskExecutor()) with flow.register(project_name="FirstFlow") in an attempt to register my flow from python and then was going to execute from the UI When I try to run that script, I keep getting the error: "requests.exceptions.HTTPError: 404 Client Error: Not Found for url: http://localhost:4200/graphql". I can access graphql from that port when I try through Chrome but python is giving me the error. 1) I also attempted the basic tutorial and had the same issue. Am I missing another step to just run the script using the backend server and UI?

    Hi, I'm looking to test our prefect at the moment but I'm having issues with the cloud.prefect.io. When I log in, I just see a blank screen and none of the buttons are responsive for me (including signout). The search bar is showing "No team selected", but the team I created on signup isn't present and I just get a spinny circle. Anyone ideas on what I can do to get this working? It all looked good when I signed up this morning.

    Hey everyone, I have a feature-request and thought I would post here before opening a github issue. For some context, I currently run workflows where tasks are long-running and the bottleneck is actually my Executor -- specifically, I have more tasks to run than resources available. Because of this setup, the "duration" of each flow run is very misleading. Attached is an example screenshot where all of these flow runs actually took the same time (the increase over time is because "duration" in the UI includes pending times). Would it be possible to support an alternative measure of a flow-run's duration? Currently, duration is given as when all tasks hit a pending state to when tasks all finish. It would be more useful (to me at least) to see this bar plot based on the “sum of task durations”.

    Hi folks! I'm running Prefect Server in a Kubernetes Cluster and I'm having a problem with setting a custom application path in the UI. I'm using Ambassador API Gateway for exposing my services, and want to access the UI under a specific endpoint (e.g.:`mydomain.com/prefect_ui/`). The request arrives fine into the UI server, but none of the UI resources gets loaded because the app directs the request to the main path (like`mydomain.com/css/app~d0ae3f07.b83a35af.css,` instead of
    <http://mydomain.com/prefect_ui/css/app~d0ae3f07.b83a35af.css|mydomain.com/prefect_ui/css/app~d0ae3f07.b83a35af.css>
    ), so it turns out getting a lot of
    404
    . I've noticed that there isn't a publicPath in the vue configs and I failed to find a way to make this work. Is there any way to do this?

    Cloud UI request: when pushing a flow from the command line, display the natural version number it is assigned as part of the upload to the cloud API. Similarly from the UI, display the artifact URI that was associated with this version (be it docker, or GCS or otherwise)

    Hi Prefect, I was wondering if it is possible to connect the prefect UI to an internal network, that might not be available from the host I'm viewing the UI with? It seems that currently
    server.ui.apollo_url
    is called from the browser (and not from the server where the UI is running). For example, I have a docker-compose managed prefect server somewhere with an internal network called
    prefect-server
    , which has both
    apollo
    ,
    ui
    , and the other prefect server services. Using
    apollo_url="<http://localhost:4200/graphql>"
    only works if I also bind
    apollo:4200
    to the local
    4200
    port where I'm running the browser from. For example setting
    apollo_url="<http://apollo:4200/graphql>"
    and letting the UI -> GraphQL connection go via the docker network wouldn't work afaik. In this case I see the following error in my browser's JS console:
    VM9:1 POST <http://apollo:4200/graphql> net::ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED

    Hey folks, when writing a Flow, I can create multiple Clocks with Default Parameters in code, then attach those clocks to a Flow's Schedule. In the UI, though I can create multiple Schedules and specify Default Parameters in general, I cannot specify Schedule-specific Default Parameters (which makes sense, since I'm setting a Schedule, not a Clock). Will this functionality be released in the UI at some point?

    What happens if I set a flow run to “skipped”, but leave the “Include non-mapped task runs” checkbox unchecked? Will the tasks run anyway? If so, what is the use case for skipping a flow, but not the tasks within it?

    Hi and good morning from Europe! I ran into some unexpected behavior, which I think should be better documented: When I change the parameters in the UI settings of a flow, the changes only apply to runs that are not already scheduled. This is not completely illogical to me, but also not obvious. I think it would be ideal if the UI could ask if scheduled runs should be updated.

Hi Florian. We have released an update for this and now any changes in the parameters page should update all run parameters unless you have explicitly selected them in the parameters tab when creating a schedule
