<!here> @Dylan I'm trying to reload a settings module in a flow for each scheduled iteration, but it never loads the changes in settings module. Is that because of some restrictions with the flow, that I might be overlooking

with Flow('ETL Status Cron Flow', schedule=CronSchedule("*/5 * * * *")) as cron_flow:
	work_conf = importlib.import_module('settings.work_settings')
	importlib.reload(work_conf)
	my_settings = getattr(work_conf, 'my_settings')                        

	if(my_settings['active'] == False):
		return
	else:
		print('do something')
     
state = cron_flow.run()

Hey @Amit Singh, Please try to reserve

@here

 for emergencies that might affect others in the community (Cloud is down, for example) We do our best to be responsive here during business hours and we promise we’ll get to your question as soon as we can.

Sure @Dylan. My apologies

As for your question, we work on a support rotation

👍 thanks

Your flow building code (the thing in the

with Flow

block) only runs once (on script startup). To get some code to run on each flow run you need to wrap that code in a

task

. I suggest adding a task to your flow that reloads the configuration.

Hi @Jim Crist-Harif I did try that too, but lo luck. here is the code

@task(name='get_work_settings')
def get_work_settings():
        work_conf = importlib.import_module('settings.work_settings')
        importlib.reload(work_conf)
        return getattr(work_conf, 'my_settings')
	

with Flow('ETL Status Cron Flow', schedule=CronSchedule("*/5 * * * *")) as cron_flow:
	my_settings = get_work_settings()                      
	if(my_settings['active'] == False):
		return
	else:
		print('do something')
     
state = cron_flow.run()

Since

get_work_settings

is a task, you probably want to use something like

case

instead of an

if

block. https://docs.prefect.io/core/idioms/conditional.html
