@Marvin How do you set environment variables for a flow to use within the prefect.yaml for deployments using kubernetes jobs?

To set environment variables for a flow to use within the prefect.yaml for deployments using Kubernetes jobs, you can follow these steps: 1. Set the environment variable using the Prefect config set command. For example:

prefect config set PREFECT_API_DATABASE_CONNECTION_URL="<postgresql+asyncpg://postgres:yourTopSecretPassword@localhost:5432/prefect>"

This assumes that you have a username called postgres, your password is set to yourTopSecretPassword, your database runs on the same host as the Prefect server instance (localhost), you use the default PostgreSQL port 5432, and your PostgreSQL instance has a database called prefect. 2. Kubernetes objects are defined in YAML, so you can create your deployments with YAML. The prefect.yaml file is used by the prefect deploy command to deploy your flows. As a part of that process, it will also build and push your image. Create a new file named prefect.yaml. 3. Each deployment is associated with a single flow, but any given flow can be referenced by multiple deployments. Deployments are uniquely identified by the combination of flow_name/deployment_name. For more detailed information, you can refer to the Prefect documentation here, here, and here.

FYI for anyone reading this thread — I wasn't able to find any examples in the documentation, but via trial and error the following worked:

work_pool:
  job_variables:
    env:
      SOME_VAR: "someval"

yep! thats right, you can also template in block values or env vars on the deployment machine like

SOME_VAR: "{{ $LOCAL_ENV }}"
