@Marvin I have a dbtcoreoperation that's generating logs in the UI but it's not showing up as a task in the UI. is there anything I can do to make it appear in the UI?

It seems there isn't a direct solution in the documentation for making a
DbtCoreOperation
appear in the Prefect UI if you're facing issues with logs showing but not the task itself. Here are a few recommendations to help troubleshoot and possibly resolve the issue: 1. Ensure Proper Task Definition: Confirm that the
DbtCoreOperation
is actually defined as a task within your flow. For example:
Copy code
python
   from prefect import Flow
   from prefect_dbt import DbtCoreOperation

   with Flow("dbt flow") as flow:
       dbt_task = DbtCoreOperation(
           commands=["dbt debug"],
           project_dir="path/to/project",
           profiles_dir="path/to/profiles"
       )

   flow.run()
2. Check Flow Registration: Make sure that your flow is correctly registered with the Prefect server. Sometimes re-registering the flow can resolve visibility issues. 3. Prefect Version: Ensure you are using the latest version of Prefect and the
prefect-dbt
integration. You can check for version updates here. 4. UI Refresh: Occasionally, the Prefect UI may not refresh instantly. Try refreshing the UI or checking the task status after some time. 5. Debugging: Add additional debug logging to your flow to ensure that the
DbtCoreOperation
is being executed as expected. For more detailed documentation and examples, you can refer to the Prefect DBT Integration documentation. If the issue persists, you might consider opening a new issue on Prefect's GitHub providing details about your specific configuration and the problem you're encountering.

hey @Tomas Moreno running
DbtCoreOperation
is not a task by default you could wrap it in a task if you wanted to see it as a task
