hello .. any idea why the task inputs do not show the actual input when using lists, it shows an empty list, but it was not empty

hey! task inputs aren't the parameters that were passed to your task, they represent the relationships between tasks. So if you say have a flow like this:
Copy code
from prefect import flow, task

@task
def get_list() -> list:
    return [1, 2, 3]

@task
def print_list(l: list):
    print(l)

@flow
def my_flow():
    l = get_list()
    print_list(l)

my_flow()
you may get something like this, that represents that where parameter L came from
Which is how this graph will get constructed
