@Marvin when I am attempting to deploy using prefect deploy I am getting errors. Can you give me an example of a prefect.yaml file?

Sure, here's a basic example of a
prefect.yaml
file and some steps to help you configure it! ### Initializing a Deployment Configuration You can initialize your deployment configuration by running:
Copy code
prefect init
This command creates a
prefect.yaml
file in your project directory. You can use the
--recipe
flag to specify a specific setup, or Prefect will guess based on your directory structure. ### Example
prefect.yaml
Below is an example structure for the
prefect.yaml
file:
Copy code
# generic metadata
prefect-version: 2.0.0
name: my-project

# preparation steps
build: null
push: null

# runtime steps
pull: null

# deployment configurations
deployments:
  - # base metadata
    name: my-deployment
    version: 1.0
    tags: []
    description: My deployment description
    
    # flow-specific fields
    entrypoint: path/to/flow.py:my_flow
    parameters: {}
    
    # infra-specific fields
    work_pool: default-agent-pool
### Using Your
prefect.yaml
By default,
prefect deploy
will use the
prefect.yaml
file in the project's root directory. If your file is located elsewhere or has a different name, use the
--prefect-file
flag:
Copy code
prefect deploy --prefect-file path/to/custom_prefect.yaml
More details and initialization recipes can be found in the official documentation on Prefect deploy. If you're interested in the official Python code example associated with deployments, you can view it here. Would you like further assistance with deployment issues?
