Hi all, does prefect provide the feature like ""depends_on_past=True"" in Airflow when running flows on schedule? Thanks for the help!!

Hey @dennis! Not out-of-the box because Prefect makes no assumptions about the interplay of time and runs (if you’ve ever attempted to trigger an Airflow DAG off-schedule that has
depends_on_past=True
, you’ll know why 😉 ), but I think we could easily add a library task that mimicked the same behavior through our API. Would you mind opening on issue on the repo for an enhancement?
