Hello all, Wondering is it possible to set flow schedules if I'm working locally? i.e. I am using Prefect cloud but have not deployed my flows to my aws infrastructure just because there are some complications there atm. I'm able to run and execute my flows from local and can see it in Prefect cloud UI.

Create a prefect profile with credentials to connect to cloud API, activate the profile, run the agents locally and connect to correct work queue. The agent should pick the flows.
If you run a flow locally without agent while using the profile, the flows should be in cloud UI.
m
I'm already connected to cloud API and my flows from running locally show up in cloud UI
d
Do you want to change the schedules of existing deployments?
m
I haven't set any schedules or created any deployments. So far have just run the static flows locally to make sure they execute.
d
What do you mean by
to set flow schedules
?
m
Like run this flow every 2 hours
d
For that you would need to deploy with a schedule.

Or just run the flow on a cron. 😄 [Non prefect way of doing things]

Yeah, want to do it the prefect way to test it out. Thanks will try deploying then.
