I need help knowing how I can limit the number of slack execution records in the prefect database, so that the database does not fill up. I want to see if I can limit some flows to that. or save more than 5 days. Thanks for the help you can give me

hi <@U05RP84E092> - what do you mean by `slack execution records` ?

if you'd like to manage concurrency of your tasks / flows / operations, you can do so <https://docs.prefect.io/latest/guides/global-concurrency-limits/?h=concurr#using-the-concurrency-context-manager|like this>

the `concurrency` context manager will implicitly create the limits, and you can activate / configure them in the UI

<@U02GMEZU18B> I take it on this you would need a concurrency limit per flow and then use
 `with concurrency({flow_name})`

&gt;  Concurrency limits are implicitly created
<https://docs.prefect.io/2.13.5/guides/global-concurrency-limits/#using-the-concurrency-context-manager>

the new global concurrency works a bit differently

&gt; created in an inactive state 
how would you set the max to 1 and activate?

just like the example i linked, and then you can activate the limit in Settings &gt; Concurrency
