I'm trying to register a new flow version (ie: same name) and kick off a run, but the updated labels don't seem to be getting used so it gets run on the wrong agent. Is there a way to set label per-flow or per-flow-run that override the flow_group?

If you ever updated the labels on the flow group (via the UI), those will persist even after a re-registration. You'll need to manually clear the override to go back to using the settings on the flow itself.

You can set labels per flow run though (exposed through the `Run` (not `Quick Run` ) page in the UI, the CLI, or the `prefect.Client.create_flow_run` method)

ah, ok that probably happened at some point.

I think we're using `prefect.cli.run.flow` right now (so we can <https://github.com/PrefectHQ/prefect/issues/2673|watch logs>) which doesn't seem to take the labels flag. Do you think it'd make sense to PR adding labels+version_group_id via the CLI? cc <@UL455076D>

Hmmm, you're right, a labels flag is missing in the CLI command, that'd definitely be something we'd be interested in adding.

A `--version-group-id` flag already exists though.

Oh great, we're a couple versions behind so missed that. I'll PR the labels flag then! thanks
