@Marvin how do I get the return value of a deployment from the run_deployment function?

To get the return value of a deployment from the

run_deployment

function in Prefect, you first need to confirm which version of Prefect you are using since the method might differ between versions. ### Prefect 2.x In Prefect 2.x, the

run_deployment

function is part of the Prefect Core API. After running a deployment, you need to retrieve the corresponding flow run's result, which requires using the Prefect Client. ### Prefect 3.x In Prefect 3.x, you can similarly run deployments and retrieve the state of the flow run to get the result. Here’s an example for each version: #### Prefect 2.x Example 1. Run the deployment:

python
from prefect.client import OrionClient
from prefect.deployments import run_deployment

deployment_id = "your_deployment_id_step"
deployment_params = {"param": "value"}

client = OrionClient()

# Run the deployment and get the flow run id
flow_run_id = await run_deployment(deployment_id, parameters=deployment_params)

# Retrieve the state of the flow run
state = await client.get_flow_run_state(flow_run_id)
result = state.result()
print(result)

#### Prefect 3.x Example 1. Run the deployment and get the state of the flow run:

python
from prefect.deployments import run_deployment
from prefect.client import get_client

deployment_name = "your_deployment_name"
deployment_params = {"param": "value"}

# Run the deployment
flow_run = await run_deployment(deployment_name, parameters=deployment_params)

# Obtain the state of the flow run
client = get_client()
state = await client.read_flow_run_state(flow_run.id)
result = state.result()
print(result)

Make sure to replace

"your_deployment_id"

or

"your_deployment_name"

with your actual deployment ID or name, and adjust deployment parameters accordingly. For further details, you can refer to additional Prefect documentation: - Prefect 2.x Deployment Guide - Prefect 3.x Deployment Guide If you encounter any specific issues or need refined information, feel free to ask!
