hey all trying to run dependent flows where I pass the output of a flow to the next flow… the docs on dependent flows were not super specific any ideas on how to approach this use case?

Hey @Mike Lev, this was a painpoint for users so in 0.15.0, we introduced 3 tasks that go together.

create_flow_run

,

wait_for_flow_run

and

get_task_run_result

. You would get the task run result and then pass it as the payload to the next

create_flow_run

as a

Parameter

. This has an example for the first two. You need to slow the slug you are looking for ahead of time. This blog also has an example

thank you very much... I do have another question to ask that is slightly unrelated I am trying to deploy flow runs with a local agent on a local server started with

prefect server start

any full examples of such use cases or best practices? just for additional context running into some issues while working inside of a devcontainer where access to

localhost

is klunky

If you are using 0.15.5 and above, maybe using

prefect server start --expose

will help. The Orchestration docs will be applicable to both Server and Cloud. The important thing is you are able to spin up an agent with

prefect agent local start

that can communicate with the server
