Hey Prefect community! 👋 Is there a way to control the order of mapped executions (I use local dask executor)? I noticed that once mapped (and scheduled) the actual execution is quite random… Whereas in my case, I need to be consecutive in the order I have provided it). Any help would be much appreciated! 🙂

When you use

map

function, you already make the assumption that the task could be executed in a random order. I’d suggest you ament your flow to enforce the order of your tasks

Hi @Newskooler! There is no way to do this at the moment. You may be interested in following this issue . If you need sequential dependencies, you unfortunately probably need to rearchitect for now as Enda said.

Thank you @Enda Peng and @Kevin Kho What would be the suggested way to re-architect it in this case?

Maybe look at this for how to set sequential dependencies in a loop. Yes please feel free to chime in on the issue.
