Do many of you invoke Lambdas in your flows? I’m working on a project that demands them, and I see there isn’t a Lambda Prefect Block for quick and easy calls/management.
Is there any interest in me opening a GitHub Issue and adding for a new block? I only ask because the unit testing behind it would be a bit unwieldy and will take some effort to get right.

hi @Dominic Tarro - by block do you mean infra block?
if so i would think something like a lambda worker might make more sense, as infra blocks will be deprecated before too long
i do like the idea! feel free to open an issue

Ah, to start I was just thinking of a convenience block with a
LambdaFunction.invoke
method like we do with
AwsSecret
. I can get it started and look into Prefect’s worker architecture later, see how that would work.
