possibly a dumb question, but we just now are getting to the point of running things on schedules so I’m running into this.  I want to schedule a flow so that it will run on a schedule in prefect cloud, however i still want it to run right away when flow.run is invoked.  How can I do that?  The schedule I’m using is below:
```flow.schedule = CronSchedule("30 12 * * *") ```

Hey! This might help: `flow.run(_run_on_schedule_=False)`

oh yup thats exactly what i was looking for

<@U01QEJ9PP53> just FYI, the cron link in this section of the docs seems to be broken <https://docs.prefect.io/core/concepts/schedules.html#simple-schedules>
