Prefect Community

Hi, some of my tasks import modules from a distant path using `sys.path.append()` . This seems to work fine when I run the flow locally with flow.run(), but not when running it from the Prefect Cloud/Server. (The error says the module can’t be found) Does it sound right? If so, why would it be the case?

The modules need to be available to whatever is running the flow. What is your executor setup?

Yeah; are the `sys.path.append()` modules available in the container?

I didn't add anything to what was installed by default.
