Prefect Community

Hey everyone :wave: Having some weird transient issues around retrieving blocks from Prefect Cloud. I’ll post more details in the thread

Basically just retrieving a block type of `Secret` and noticing that sometimes it retrieves just fine and the other times we get `ValueError: Unable to find block document named &lt;our block here&gt; for block type secret` even thought the block exists and have verified it does work

hi <@U03C642NJG4> - is this issue still occurring for you?

Yes, it has been happening for a while now

sorry about that - can you share a trace and roughly when it started for you?

Unfortunately I don’t have all the previous logs but I can share some links to runs if that will help out?

Great, I can get that to you in a bit. Thank you!

<@U02GMEZU18B> Unforunately since this is happening during a flow deploy it’s not registered as a flow run, so I don’t have any logs to share /:

do you have a stack trace from the machine where deployment fails?

if nothing else, if you're still hitting this, feel free to DM me your acct/workspace IDs and I can poke around later

<@U03C642NJG4>, <@U02GMEZU18B> have you been able to solve this? I am facing a similar issue but with a JSON block.

<@U0128V56T4M> Issue I was having is the VM this was running on was not signed into Prefect Cloud (even though we thought it was already)

&gt; If you look at the stack trace from the error you may notice it is using the URL <http://ephemeral-prefect/api/>, which if you are using prefect cloud you are just not logged in
