I cannot reproduce with `python example py`

Jake Kaplan · Answer

fwiw I m also not able to reproduce Maybe worth installing from `main` and see if it s resolved from the linked pr above the fix would be included in the next release `2 10 11`

Jake Kaplan · Answer

`pip install git+<https github com prefectHQ prefect>`

Darren Liu · Answer

maybe this helps it was installed as a dependency to prefect gcp i believe

Darren Liu · Answer

`prefect gcp = extras = bigquery cloud storage secret manager version = ^0 2 3 `

Darren Liu · Answer
