We might be a little bit crazy, but we’re doing some business process management using Prefect. Here’s a 20 min presentation about how we integrated Prefect with our Developer Portal at Box (much more talking about the usecase than Prefect itself, but still I think it’s worth sharing 🙂):

This is really neat! How did you handle the tasks that require a human action in Prefect?

@Oliver Mannion we use only external systems for human-based tasks, this is Jira (changing ticket states) and GitHub (approving Pull Requests). In Prefect we just poll for the external system state by raising a Pause signal https://docs.prefect.io/api/latest/engine/signals.html#pause

@Tom Klein no plans yet, but there is some chance that we can just share the code for people interested (not a proper “plugin release”)
