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 ?Marvin
01/08/2025, 3:42 PMprefect.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.
If you need further assistance or examples, let me know and I'll delve deeper into the documentation for you.
