Prefect Community

Can I access task state inside of a flow without explicitly passing task result objects to a task? I am trying to emulate the behavior of a state handler from prefect &lt; 2.0

Like `state = my_task(return_state=True)` ?

Or `future = my_task.submit(); current_state = future.get_state(); final_state = future.wait()` ?

Previously a flow run state handler could be used as a “post hook” for a flow run, in my example I have actions I want to take on failures

This didn’t require passing the state of every task in a flow, because it was configured at the flow level

I understand notification blocks exist in prefect 2.0, but I built a custom state handler to create opsgenie alerts that I would like to emulate in prefect 2.0
