Is there a way in Prefect to set Deployment B to be dependent on Deployment A? (cross DAG deps) I have a daily routine ETL task which is Prefect Deployment A, runs every day at 02:00 am. Then I have one or more Deployment B’s that should run on a daily basis, if-and-only-if Prefect Deployment A had a successful flow run. Is it possible to set dependencies between Deployment B and Deployment A? If so, how? Thanks!

I think this would be a good application for automations or `run_deployment`. The former would be configured in Prefect Cloud and the latter being in code

Thanks @Geoffrey Keating! I am using the self-hosted version of Prefect, and not Prefect cloud.
Is there a way to set cross DAG dependencies? i.e. tell the Prefect server through REST API that Deployment B may start only if there was a previous successful flow run of Deployment A? or something along these lines?
Perhaps setting a trigger for Deployment B or an event-driven runs

Not sure about that, anyone else got an answer?

I think what @Jake Kaplan mentioned yesterday is applicable here, by using an
