Hi guys ! I got some questions regarding naming conventions and best practices: How do you name your deployments ? By this I mean: My flow names usually indicate the flow main job, and I was thinking naively to name my deployment by the stage of the flow (PROD, DEV, etc.). However, looking at the UI (in the
Flow Runs
dashboards deployment filter for instance), I see that deployments are not grouped by similar name but by associated flow apparently. So I think I may misunderstood the prefect deployment philosophy and wanted to ask you all if there is any literature or documentation about the naming convention in prefect P ?

Hey @Clovis As far as I'm aware we don't have any specific opinions on naming conventions when it comes to flows/deployments, it largely comes down to what works best for you and your team. Heres some docs around deployments you might find useful though in deciding how to approach this https://discourse.prefect.io/t/deployments-are-now-simpler-and-declarative/1255 https://discourse.prefect.io/t/deployment-cli-examples-based-on-your-platform-storage-and-infrastructure/1461
