04/05/2021, 7:23 PMHi everyone, thanks for this awesome tool and channel. I'm wondering if I can trigger a Flow from a external API. Not by using the UI. Somelike using FLASK API for instance. It is possible or there is any documentation available?

Something like this:
Copy code
from prefect.client import Client
client = Client()
result = json.loads(client.graphql(query).to_json())t
