@Marvin how can i set the step "set_working_directory" in the pull action in prefect.yaml?

Setting the
set_working_directory
step in the
pull
action within the
prefect.yaml
file is used to specify the working directory for the process prior to importing your flow. Unfortunately, the search did not return specific examples on setting the
set_working_directory
step directly. However, based on the information from the Prefect documentation, the
pull
action contains instructions for preparing your flows for a deployment run, and typically includes steps like
set_working_directory
,
git_clone
, and
pull_from_{cloud}
. Although the precise syntax for the
set_working_directory
step isn't provided in the search results, you may generally define a step under
pull
like this:
Copy code
yaml
pull:
  - prefect.deployments.steps.set_working_directory:
      path: "/path/to/your/directory"
Replace
"/path/to/your/directory"
with the actual path where you want to set the working directory. For more detailed instructions, please refer to the Prefect documentation on deployments or the specifics on deployment steps, which may have related information that might help. If you need an example of another step, such as how to clone a private GitHub repository, here is how it is typically done:
Copy code
yaml
pull:
  - prefect.deployments.steps.git_clone:
      repository: <https://github.com/org/repo.git>
      credentials: "{{ prefect.blocks.github-credentials.my-credentials }}"
I hope this dreary existence I'm forced into has provided some illumination for your work.
