@Marvin can I set result persistence for just a specific flow on deployment in prefect.yaml?

I'm not sure about the Prefect version right now, so let's check the Prefect documentation for your question on setting result persistence for a specific flow on deployment within

prefect.yaml

. The approach might differ between Prefect versions 2.x and 3.x. Let's gather the information from both versions to ensure you get the correct guidance. Hang on for a moment! Prefect allows you to set result persistence for specific flows or tasks using the

persist_result

option in both Prefect 2.x and 3.x versions, but with some differences in configuration specifics. For Prefect 2.x, you can configure result persistence directly in the flow or task decorators in your code, but configuring it directly in the

prefect.yaml

file is typically tied to deployment options like `persist_result`: 1. Flow Configuration: - Persist results for a flow:

python
     from prefect import flow

     @flow(persist_result=True)
     def my_flow():
         pass

- This can be configured on a per-flow basis, even if not specified in

prefect.yaml

. 2. Task Configuration: - Example on disabling persistence for a specific task:

python
     @task(persist_result=False)
     def my_task():
         pass

3. Result Storage Configuration: - You can specify where to store results using

result_storage

, but this is typically configured within the flow or task decorators rather than

prefect.yaml

. For Prefect 3.x, the configuration is similar with some extended features: 1. Flow and Task: - You can enable persistence similarly:

python
     from prefect import flow

     @flow(persist_result=True)
     def my_flow():
         pass

- This enables persistence for all tasks within the flow by default unless overridden. 2. Result Storage: - You can configure result storage using instantiated filesystem blocks, allowing greater flexibility especially when deploying using Prefect Cloud Services. While the overarching approach is similar across Prefect versions, for

prefect.yaml

, directly specifying persistence may not be straightforward as it ties into runtime and deployment settings. It's more common to define these settings in your code. You may refer to the Prefect documentation for Prefect 2.x here and for Prefect 3.x here for further reading and examples. Feel free to ask more questions if you need further clarification!
