@Marvin if a deployment is deployed to 2 different workpools, will the names conflict? How can I have a deployment for the same flow but in different work pools as separate deployments?

It appears there was an issue gathering precise documentation info, but I can provide some guidance nonetheless. To deploy the same flow to multiple work pools without name conflicts, you should create separate deployments for each work pool with unique names. Here’s how you can do it: 1. Define Your Flow: Create your flow as usual.

python
from prefect import flow

@flow
def my_flow():
    print("Hello from my flow!")

2. Create Deployment for Each Work Pool: Use the Prefect CLI to create deployments for each work pool with unique names.

bash
prefect deployment build my_flow.py:my_flow -n "my_flow_workpool_a" -q "workpool-a"
prefect deployment build my_flow.py:my_flow -n "my_flow_workpool_b" -q "workpool-b"

Here,

-n

specifies the deployment name and

-q

specifies the work pool queue. By giving each deployment a unique name, you ensure there are no conflicts. For more detailed information, refer to the Prefect official documentation (when available). If you have further questions, feel free to ask.

deployment name uniqueness is determined by a combination of

flow_name/deployment_name

. behind the scenes every deployment has a uuid too

i just realized that. so if I deploy the above deployment flow_name/deployment_name to queueA then right after to queueB, only queueB will be associated with it?

that's right

got it. thx
