Hi - I ran the example shown in Dynamic DAGs: Task Looping -- the visualization is not showing a loop. Is there a way to overcome this? For clarity and understanding, visualizing loops are important. They should become first class citizens with
ifelse
and
select case
(IMO) 🙂

Hi @itay livni - unfortunately this isn’t really possible at the moment; prior to a Flow run, we have no way of knowing a task will loop (as looping occurs through the use of a signal); after the Flow has run, the looping task usually enters a
Success
state, so we have lose the record that it looped

"as looping occurs through the use of a signal" yes. I am trying to hack around this. without using prefect loop.
