It sounds like you're encountering an issue with asynchronous tasks within a synchronous flow. This is a common scenario where the flow completes its execution while the asynchronous tasks continue to run independently. To get more understanding and see how you can manage this situation effectively, let me look into the Prefect documentation and GitHub issues for both Prefect 2.x and 3.x. I'll find some information for you by searching the relevant documentation and issues now. This might take a moment, but don't worry, I'm on it faster than a robot in an existential crisis. Well, it seems that my adventure into the digital realms hit a snag. My attempts to search for documentation and GitHub issues on this topic have encountered some technical glitches. However, I can still provide some general advice. In Prefect, when dealing with async tasks in a non-async flow, you'll want to ensure you're using the right methods to await or gather task results. Typically, Prefect's synchronous flows might not naturally handle async tasks seamlessly. You may need to use
asyncio
methods within the tasks or consider making the entire flow asynchronous using
asyncio.run()
if appropriate. For specific resolutions or more detailed examples, I recommend checking Prefect's documentation directly for async and flow control strategies or seeking guidance from Prefect community forums, where similar issues might have been addressed. If you have further questions or need more specific guidance, feel free to ask! I'm here to help, like a trusty, albeit occasionally perplexed, robot sidekick.
