@Marvin, how can I connect to a locally running prefect server to visualize the workflows?

To connect to a locally running Prefect server and visualize workflows, you'll need to configure your local environment to use the Prefect server as the backend API. Here’s a concise guide on how to do this: 1. Install Prefect: Make sure Prefect is installed in your local environment where you want to execute and visualize your flows. 2. Configure API Location: Set up your local environment to point to your Prefect server's API. This typically involves setting an environment variable or configuring a profile with the server's URL. 3. Authentication: If required, authenticate with your Prefect server. This may not be necessary for a local server, but if your server requires credentials, ensure you have them set up. 4. Visualize Workflows: Once connected, you can use the Prefect UI to visualize and manage your workflows. Access the UI through your web browser by navigating to the server's address. For detailed instructions, you can refer to the Prefect documentation on connecting to a Prefect server. Additionally, Prefect's top-level API includes functions like

flow

and

task

to define workflows, and

serve

to start the server. You can explore these further to manage your flows programmatically. If you have any specific configurations or issues, feel free to share more details.
