Hello all! I was wondering if there was a way to do something similar to airflow sensors? I need a task to kick off everytime a new file of a certain format lands in azure blob storage. I think there might be a way for me to hook the storage account up to a queue and notification service and subscribe to an event grid etc. But I was wondering if there was a simpler way to do this via prefect?

for 2.0 we are working on something really cool that will address the problem much nicer than sensors

Ah awesome thanks. I'm actually picking up from scratch so I was going to start with 2.0 from the get go. Is there a branch or issue/etc I can track for that feature on github? Or do you have an estimated timeline for beta?

no ETA, but I believe event grid is, for now the easiest way to do it - I will ask my colleague who is familiar with Azure whether we could build a recipe showing how to approach that use case firing a workflow any time a new file lands in Azure Blob Storage

Ah that would be awesome if you could. I'd really appreciate it. Because without it I have to go read all the docs for event grid etc.
