Hi Is there a way to append a string to a flow run name

Question

Kevin Kho · Answer

You can use the RenameFlowRun task and get the current one with `prefect context get flow run name `

`prefect context get flow run name ` can run only inside a task right So I need to create a task X and inside of it return the flow name and after in the with Flow section to pass it to the RenameFlowRun task

Kevin Kho · Answer

Yes and no Yes it runs in a task but you can use it in state handlers so you can have the rename run before the Flow begins Code below

Kevin Kho · Answer

```from prefect import Flow task from prefect tasks prefect import RenameFlowRun def rename handler obj new state old state if new state is running RenameFlowRun run flow run name= new name return task def first task return 1 with Flow test flow state handlers= rename handler as flow first task ```
