Is it possible to use Prefect Orion with Prefect Cloud with Orion's current release? It'd be great to be able to utilize async code in our workflows.

@Michael Ulin No, that’s not possible because the current Cloud UI is for Prefect Core, not for Orion. But there will be a new Cloud UI that will look closer to the Orion UI than the current Prefect Cloud UI. You can check this blog post and recording to find out more about it.

Makes sense. Thanks!

Hey @Michael Ulin, Just to make sure you haven’t missed the possible way to use async functions in a task for 1.0. Create an

async def afunc

without the task decorator and call it in your task with e.g.,

asyncio.run(afunc(...))

. This is working well for us 🙂

Awesome - I'll check it out. Thanks!
