block or create a credentials block specific to your git-based version control platform to store your credentials. Then you can reference the block in the Python deploy
method or the prefect.yaml
file pull step."
This is absolutely not clear for prefect.yaml
users! How do we precisely fill a GitHub storage block with a Secret as well in prefect.yaml

, you can leverage Prefect's ability to reference blocks dynamically at runtime. Here's how you can set it up:
1. Define the Secret Block: First, you need to create a Secret block in Prefect that stores your credentials, such as a GitHub token.
2. Reference in prefect.yaml
: In your prefect.yaml
file, you can use this Secret block within the pull
section to clone a private repository. Here's a basic example of how you might structure this:
yaml
pull:
- prefect.tasks.git_clone:
repository: "<https://github.com/your-private-repo.git>"
credentials: "{{ prefect.blocks.SecretBlockName }}"
Replace SecretBlockName
with the actual name of your Secret block. The credentials
field should point to the block that contains your GitHub credentials.
For more detailed instructions, you can refer to the Prefect documentation on infrastructure concepts and GitHub storage block usage.
