@Marvin can I create prefect variables from the cli?

It seems that while you cannot directly create variables specifically for Prefect flows via the CLI, you can manipulate the Prefect configuration settings using the Prefect CLI. You can set and unset variables that are part of Prefect's configuration profiles with the following commands: - To set a configuration variable:

shell
  prefect --profile "foo" config set VAR=Y

This sets the variable

VAR

to

Y

in the profile

foo

. - To unset configuration variables:

shell
  prefect config unset VAR2 VAR3

This unsets the variables

VAR2

and

VAR3

from the current profile. For Prefect Cloud or Server users, you might want to manipulate or add variables through UI or Prefect's REST API instead of CLI, as the CLI configuration settings apply to the Prefect CLI environment rather than to your Prefect flows or tasks. For more details, you can refer to the Prefect Variables documentation and the Prefect Settings documentation.
