hi everyone, I have external executable that needs to be scheduled to run by Prefect. What is the best way to go about this? so far I've used python subprocess.Popen to call it, but I have to manually stream the stdout for logging, that's very clunky. I saw

prefect-shell

and the

shell operation block

, are they better suited for calling external applications?

prefect-shell

is probably the best way to go if you're looking to get the

stdout

channel streamed to Prefect for logging purposes. There's some examples on the SDK page that would help you get started: https://docs.prefect.io/integrations/prefect-shell

thank you Brendan
