Hey community, I am just getting started with coiled, trying to get a minimal example running on cloud (locally was super simple to get started based on this prefect coiled tutorial). First I need to login to coiled cloud properly, but how? Do I have to call

coiled.Cloud()

explicitly? Or change the coiled config path in the docker image? 🙂 For further context, see failed task id: https://cloud.prefect.io/accure/flow-run/935509e3-a3d5-41db-8cb4-0e9ca36ff56a?logId=e0a0cc4e-1f70-46df-b4cd-078c67082ac3

Traceback (most recent call last):

ValueError: Please first connect with coiled.Cloud(...)

Maybe the error message is explicitly describing, what to do, but it's not entirely forwarded by prefect?

@Robin does your

/home/zaubeerer/.config/dask/coiled.yaml

configuration file have your Coiled token in it? You can obtain the token at https://cloud.coiled.io/profile

Yes, I used

coiled login

which created the following

coiled.yaml

coiled:
  aws:
    region: us-east-2
  server: <https://cloud.coiled.io>
  token: asdf
  user: user_name
