Hey, a basic stuff but wanted to confirm.. to be able to see and run the flow in my own infrastructure I need to register the flow in the cloud account? No way to use it without the account? I ran prefect server but cannot force to register flow to local instance

Hi @Luke - no, you can use Prefect Server in your own infrastructure without creating a Prefect Cloud account 🙂

cool, it's a bit late or maybe I'm doing something wrong-> switched to backend, run prefect server, created a simple flow and now how can I allow to run it in the dockered server?

You'll still need to create a project with your local Server instance and then call
flow.register()
, which will register it in your Prefect Server DB

It sounds like you need to specify
prefect backend server
in the same environment you're building/registering your flow
(or set that in your
~/.prefect/config.toml
)
