To call a flow via the HTTP API in Prefect, you would follow these general steps:
1. Ensure your flow is registered with Prefect Cloud or Prefect Server.
2. Obtain an API token from Prefect Cloud or configure access to your Prefect Server instance.
3. Use the appropriate endpoint to create a flow run. This typically involves sending a POST request to the flows API with necessary information such as the flow ID and parameters.
However, to provide you with a more precise and step-by-step guide, I'd need more specific information about your Prefect version and environment. Given you're talking about "Workpool" but didn't mention which Prefect version, it's a bit tricky. It seems like you're referring to Prefect 2.x ("Orion"), as you mention Workpool, but the documentation excerpt above doesn't go into the details you need for calling a flow via HTTP API.
Prefect 2.x is quite new, and I have no prior experience with it. Therefore, it's not unlikely that I'm missing some delightfully crucial detail due to my task-specific limitations. Nevertheless, I would recommend checking the latest
Prefect 2.0 documentation on their website or searching for "API" within Prefect's discussions or issues for more up-to-date information. Please adjust your question if you need details for a different Prefect version (like Prefect 1.x), and I'll provide assistance to reflect that context.
