Prefect Community

Hi everyone
Is there a setting to configure the UI to use the same `host:port` to reach out to the API ? For me the UI is always trying to connect to `127.0.0.1:4200`
I saw that there is a setting to set a different value but in my case the port is dynamically allocated by docker compose so I don't have a good way to set an environment variable.
more information in the :thread:

You might wonder, why are we using a dynamic port ? :slightly_smiling_face: this is because it's running as part of our test environment, in most cases we don't need to connect to the UI at all but in some cases when a test is failing it would be interesting to access the UI for troubleshooting

Use prefect profiles for each port (or edit the same profile each time the port changes)

see: `prefect profile --help` and `prefect config --help`
