not quite with this you tell the prefect server that an instance of this flow needs to be run somewhere This could be picked by any prefect agent communicating with your server You need to run a prefect agent in your flask route That prefect agent can then pick up flows with `LocalRun` run configs and run them in the agent process

If you are building the flow in the flask route as well check out `run agent` <https github com PrefectHQ prefect blob 8ce99d9752b175eeaf8a0b15ba3d0a80c221b69e src prefect core flow py L1543> This if I remember correctly registers the flow with the correct run config starts an agent locally and tells server to start a flow run which only the local agent can pick up

If your flow is already registered try spinning up a `LocalAgent` in the flask route yourself <https github com PrefectHQ prefect blob master src prefect agent local agent py> Note that you NEED your flow to be configured with `LocalRun` if you want the flow to run in the agent process
