Hey Team, i'm having an issue when running "prefect server create-tenant". I am getting the error [requests.exceptions.ReadTimeout: HTTPConnectionPool(host='localhost', port=4200): Read timed out. (read timeout=30)], however i have set the environment variable GRAPHQL_URL to my hostname where it's hosted; it seems not to be registering the env variable. Any advice on how to properly change the Graphql url?

Actually i've identified that since create_tenant creates a default Client(), it overrides any environment variables with <https://github.com/PrefectHQ/prefect/blob/master/src/prefect/config.toml>. I will test changing this file and let you know. The interaction between docker-compose.yml and config.toml is surprising..

Hey <@U018XT6TFRU>, thanks for letting us know!
