04/21/2023, 1:23 PMHi everyone! I have a flow which I want to deploy multiple times with different parameters. The only problem is that I want some parameters to be not modifiable when a user does a custom run. How can I achieve this?

flapili
04/21/2023, 1:27 PMhard to give more advise without knowledge of the usecase & minimal code of example

how to identify the deployment which triggered the flow?f

from prefect import flow
from prefect.context import get_run_context
@flow
def main():
ctx = get_run_context()
print(ctx.flow_run.deployment_id)🙌 1

get_run_logger().info(get_client().read_deployment(FlowRunContext.get().flow_run.deployment_id).name)f

flapili
04/21/2023, 1:43 PM(I never used infra args so idk)

04/21/2023, 1:44 PMthey are not sensitive, they can be also in the code. Anyway, there are also variables in Prefect which can be used to store parameters that every deployment can read
