Is there a way to set the api_token in code rather than relying on env or config file?

Hey @Lawrence Finn, I will double check this but I don’t think so. You can authenticate the

Client

, but that would but extend to

flow.register()

i had to do something like

os.environ["PREFECT__CLOUD__AUTH_TOKEN"] = get_prefect_token()

from prefect import task, Flow, Parameter
from prefect.schedules import IntervalSchedule
from datetime import timedelta
from prefect.storage import S3
from prefect.executors import DaskExecutor
from prefect.run_configs import KubernetesRun
from prefect.tasks.prefect import StartFlowRun
import prefect

which is kinda ugly but 🤷

I went through the code and you might be able to do

client = Client(api_key="...")
client.save_auth_to_disk()

which creates an

auth.toml

file and then future

Client()

calls would fetch that so when you do

flow.register()

, it would work as it creates a client under the hood. But this would persist a file which I guess is not what you want.

i guess your solution is fine, it’s on a lambda container so it is fine to write the file

Actually, if you do it this way, just use the

client.register()

function directly to register your Flow.

what params does that func take?

Very similar:

prefect.client.client.Client.register(flow, project_name=None, build=True, set_schedule_active=True, version_group_id=None, compressed=True, no_url=False, idempotency_key=None)

oh cooool
