Do work queue names have to be globally unique? I'm working on a blue green deployment to upgrade our prefect agent to latest version - we currently run an agent on
prefect==2.7.X
and want to deploy another agent (
prefect==2.14.13
) and create a new work pool + 2 new work queues - Do these new work queues have to use different names than the existing work queues?

Hi Leon, as long as the work pools are uniquely named, I don't believe you'll run into issues with having your work queues sharing the same names.
FWIW, whenever a new work pool is created, there's a "default" queue that gets spun up for that pool. In my environment, I have a bunch of work pools of different types that have queues named "default", and haven't had any issues with wires getting crossed.

got it - thanks Bianca
