Bring your towel and join one of the fastest growing data communities. Welcome to our second-generation open source orchestration platform, a completely rethought approach to dataflow automation.

Prefect Community

Hi, I am  new to prefect but very excited to try it out.  I am setting up my use case but running into some issues.  Are we not meant to have tasks call other tasks?  Should tasks be only called from within a flow directly?  I am getting a 'Could not infer an active Flow context' exception

Hey, you can use a task in another task by calling the `run` method.

```@task
def abc():
    return 1

@task
def bcd():
    x = abc.run()
    return x+1```

This will use the Python function under the hood
