@Marvin I'm using the prefect 3.0 "deploy" method to deploy my Flow to my ECS Push infrastructure. Is there a way to add a retry at the deployment level, not at the Flow level? Specifically when it enters a failed state I want the job to try again.
Copy code
if __name__ == "__main__":
    verify_domain_status.deploy(
        name="verify-domain-status-ecs-deployment",
        work_pool_name="fxdmz-ecs-pool",
        image=DockerImage(
            name="<http://635441544388.dkr.ecr.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/prefect-flows:latest|635441544388.dkr.ecr.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/prefect-flows:latest>",
            platform="linux/amd64",
        ),
    )

You want to retry the job at the deployment level when it fails, not at the Flow level. Let's look up how to configure this in Prefect 3.0. First, I'll check Prefect 3.0 documentation for any information on adding retries at the deployment level. It appears that Prefect 3.0 does not explicitly support adding retry configurations directly at the deployment level. A few findings indicate that retries can be set at the task or flow level but not specifically at the deployment level: 1. Retry Logic in Task Definitions: Retries can be added to tasks within a flow using the
@task
decorator. Prefect Docs - Write Tasks shows how to do this with task retries. 2. Deployment Mechanics: Documentation about deploying workflows and handling retries at the deployment level is not explicit. Deployment Mechanics. 3. GitHub Issues: There's an issue discussing retry logic resulting in errors during deployment. - Error OSError - Exit Code Issue - Inconsistent Retry Behaviors Retry behavior can typically be customized at the task and flow levels. If you need implementation advice, you can explore these documents and issues. For now, you may have to add retry logic within your flow or tasks themselves. For further detailed steps, check: - Prefect 3.0 Deployment Concepts If this limitation is critical for your use case, consider raising a feature request on the Prefect GitHub. Hope this helps! 🚀
