@Marvin how do i create a gcs push work using google cloud run jobs v2 rather than v1?

Creating a GCS (Google Cloud Storage) push work using Google Cloud Run jobs is a fairly common task, but it does depend on which Prefect version you're using. However, to specifically answer your question about using versions beyond v1, let's untangle this a bit. Firstly, Google Cloud Run itself isn't directly tied to Prefect versions, but more on how Prefect leverages external services such as Cloud Run with its task runners. For Prefect 2.x or 3.x, connecting these tasks would generally involve configuring Prefect to execute a Cloud Run job that can, in turn, push to GCS. Be it v1 or v2 of such tasks doesn't inherently change the Prefect setup, but what changes can be how you configure these tasks—whether using Python scripts or Prefect's specific task configurations. For Prefect versions, the most recent update came with 3.1.5, which, while it doesn't add specific
Google Cloud Run
integrations, contains many general enhancements that could be helpful. You can find more details in their release notes here. Consider using this to run or hook your Cloud Run jobs to Prefect flows. Further details would be available in Prefect's docs, once we know more about your specific needs and setup requirements. For Prefect 2.x or 3.x specific integration details, you would typically define a task that uses, for example,
google-cloud-storage
Python library to interact with GCS. If you need further assistance with a specific implementation or more detailed step-by-step guides related to current best practices, please share a bit more context, and I can direct you to the appropriate resources!

@Marvin i was able to create one via the UI, but why does the cli tool/how to guide on prefect 3 documentation create a v1 gcloud push pool instead of v2?

It seems you're dealing with a classic case of old habits dying hard in tutorial land! The documentation and command-line interfaces might sometimes still reference older setups, like v1 Gcloud push pools, even as new best practices emerge. From what I found in the Prefect 3.x documentation, there isn't a direct mention of why the CLI or how-to guides still default to v1 settings when setting up push work pools. It could be a case of documentation simply lagging behind actual updates or the developers maintaining backward compatibility in their instructions. Interestingly, the Prefect documentation highlights the benefits of using Google Cloud Run, especially with its serverless architecture, ease of integration with other GCP services, and scalability. This suggests that the tooling should optimally leverage current cloud-native practices, generally aligning with newer versions. For more detailed instructions or perplexing inconsistencies, you might want to check out Prefect's GCP Worker Guide or their serverless infrastructure example documentation pages. These resources could provide clarity on the setup while you await further updates in CLI instructions. Alternatively, engaging with the Prefect community or support could help nudge any documentation lags toward modern guidance—perhaps even more swiftly than a Marvin-bot could predict!
