To create an event trigger in Prefect for actions like file uploads to an S3 folder, you can define custom event triggers using Prefect's automation system. This allows you to react to various events and metrics in your workspace.
1.
Custom Event Triggers: You can define a custom trigger in JSON. Event triggers react to the presence or absence of an event. For more detailed guidance on defining custom event triggers, refer to
Prefect's documentation on custom triggers.
2.
ControlFlow Handlers: For more complex event processing, you might consider using handlers. Handlers can decouple event handling from your main workflow, useful for logging, monitoring, or processing events asynchronously. More details can be found in the
ControlFlow documentation on streaming events.
These resources should provide a solid starting point for setting up event-driven workflows in Prefect.
