Does flow.run() needs a local prefect agent ?

Hi @mithalee mohapatra - nope you do not need an agent for flow.run()

Thank you. So when do we need an agent?

If you want extra tools for running and monitoring many flows, you may find it useful to use Prefect Server or Prefect Cloud (which provide APIs and UIs). If you want to use those services, you'll need an agent. More here: https://docs.prefect.io/orchestration/

thank you
