Hi. With a brand-new install, the order of operations is 1.

prefect backend server

2.

prefect server start

If I don't want "default" displayed on the UI (i.e. I just need one tenant, but don't want it named "default"), I need to add a new tenant. This is done through 3.

prefect server create-tenant --name "Some Other Name"

This now creates a new, additional, tenant. I only need one... Ideally, the steps would be, from above, 1 then 3 then 2. However, that order doesn't work because the server (database) has to be up for cmd 3 to work. Would it be useful to have the default tenant name as optional argument to

prefect server start

? Or am I missing something w.r.t. the creation of my tenant?

Hey @Stéphan Taljaard -- since this is your own deployment you can just connect to the psql database and modify the existing tenant name at any time

Great. I was trying my hand at GraphQL now to delete the "default" tenant, but I think renaming is a all-round better option. Thanks. When I get a chance, I'll see if I can submit a

--skip-create-tenant

change to the repo.

You can also update the tenant name and slug directly from the Interactive API using this:

mutation UpdateTenant($name: String!, $slug: String!) {
  update_tenant_name(input: { name: $name }) {
    id
  }
  update_tenant_slug(input: { slug: $slug }) {
    id
  }
}

or by going to the "Account" page under the Team menu and setting those from the Profile tile

@nicholas seems some changes to your mutation is required.

mutation UpdateTenant($tenant_id: String!, $name: String!, $slug: String!) {
  update_tenant_name(input: { tenant_id: $tenant_id, name: $name }) {
    id
  }
  update_tenant_slug(input: { tenant_id: $tenant_id, slug: $slug }) {
    id
  }
}

I'm just struggling now to pass the id in variable as type UUID. Can you point me in the right direction on how to cast as uuid?

"Variable \"$tenant_id\" of type \"String!\" used in position expecting type \"UUID!\".",

Hi @Stéphan Taljaard - try this:

mutation UpdateTenant($tenant_id: UUID!, $name: String!, $slug: String!) {
  update_tenant_name(input: { tenant_id: $tenant_id, name: $name }) {
    id
  }
  update_tenant_slug(input: { tenant_id: $tenant_id, slug: $slug }) {
    id
  }
}
