Deceivious · Answer

Yea

kasteph · Answer

what if subflows have to be dynamically created as in a for loop

kasteph · Answer

would it work just as well to do like so ```parallel subflows = for s in stuff subflow = subflow func s parallel subflows append subflow func await asyncio gather parallel subflows ```

Deceivious · Answer

Deceivious · Answer

It s the same

kasteph · Answer

Neither the Prefect example nor mine use a list comprehension

Deceivious · Answer

Ah yes but you can pass dynamic args and it ll work

kasteph · Answer

thanks testing it now

Nate · Answer

in case you want your subflows to be a standalone deployment < kasteph> i ll leave here

kasteph · Answer

wow lifesaver heart hands

kasteph · Answer

< Nate> could asyncio run the apply method of the deployment instead assuming using `Deployment build from flow` e g ``` asyncio run get total pokemon weight deployment apply ```

Nate · Answer

<https github com PrefectHQ prefect blob f7c95b2c37f027e202e62109c501943fce003d70 src prefect deployments py L657|it depends> on whether the context you re calling from is async or sync if you re in an sync context you should just be able to call `get total pokemon weight deployment apply ` in async context you can just `await` it

Nate · Answer

shouldnt have to use `asyncio run` i dont think
