Prefect Community

Hi all, I was exploring Prefect Automations and was wondering if we could run a flow when an another flow has been cancelled from the UI? I'm trying to catch the cases where a user would cancel a flow from the UI either as a separate flow/in state handler..

Not at the moment, but it might be worth the feature request. I’ll open a ticket for this.

For other states (not cancelled), this is possible with the Flow level state handler.

Interesting, never heard of a flow level state handler, could you please point me to any documentation/example? Thank you!

The docs for that will be <https://docs.prefect.io/core/concepts/notifications.html#notifications-and-state-handlers|here>. It would be your Flow process triggering other Flows, but the state handlers aren’t used for cancelled Flows.
