Hi! I'm struggling to understand the mechanics of
prefect config set
with Prefect Cloud. For example, say I want to persist results by default. It seems like the way to do that is to
prefect config set PREFECT_RESULTS_PRESIST_BY_DEFAULT=true
, but also, it sounds like
prefect config
only impacts my local config settings on my development machine? When I
flow.deploy()
to my ECS work pool, how will that ECS work pool know to persist results? Maybe I'm just misunderstanding the relationships between my machine and prefect cloud and whatnot, being extremely new to Prefect

Hey! You’re right you’ll need to set it for your remote execution. There are a few ways to do that but the easiest is probably to set it as env var on your work pool or deployment

Ah that makes sense, thanks!
