Copy code
Flow run UUID('XXXX') was created from deployment 'YYYYY' which is configured with a storage block. Workers currently only support local storage. Please use an agent to execute this flow run.b

07/18/2023, 8:36 PMCould you also describe how to create a worker role and assign it to the worker? Right now I am a little confused as I seem to be able to give a worker a non-worker role, however the docs say I should be unable to do so.
