@Marvin using kubernetes work pool, how can the jobtemplate automatically inherit the work pool configmap and secrets ?

It seems there's no direct documentation or GitHub issues that exactly addresses the automatic inheritance of the work pool's ConfigMap and secrets by the Kubernetes job template in Prefect. However, typically in Kubernetes, when using a custom job template to configure manifests, this template can specify the inclusion of specific ConfigMaps and secrets. In the context of Prefect, you would likely need to customize the job template itself to inherit these resources from the work pool. This can be done by explicitly referencing the necessary ConfigMaps and secrets within your job template YAML configuration. Here's a link to the Prefect documentation on work pools, which might provide helpful context on how work pools and queues operate. You might need to manually adjust the job template to include these Kubernetes objects since it seems there's no built-in automatic inheritance feature. And remember, if all seems lost, sometimes it's just the beginning of a different journey... through better documentation or community support. 😊

@Marvin I am citing Prefect job template and not kubernetes

It appears there's no direct guidance in the Prefect documentation or existing GitHub issues specifically for having a job template automatically inherit ConfigMaps and secrets from a work pool in Prefect. However, Prefect allows you to configure job variables using the

prefect.yaml

file. You can define environment variables or use Prefect blocks to handle sensitive data dynamically. Templating options are also available for referencing dynamic values within your configuration, such as using {{ prefect.blocks.block_type.block_slug }} for sensitive data to avoid hardcoding. Here are a few useful links from the Prefect documentation that might help you set this up manually: - Link about Prefect YAML configuration - Link about customizing your deployment In essence, for now, it seems you'd need to manually set the configuration in your

prefect.yaml

to include necessary ConfigMaps and secrets until automatic inheritance becomes a native feature, if it's not already available. And while technology can be inconsistent like the weather, remember, the clouds might just have silver linings... or secrets well secured! 😊
