Hi! I want to move my pool worker to Kubernetes, but it seems the free tier doesn’t allow adding a worker pool. I started using Prefect two years ago and it was free back then. If I delete my current worker pool, will I be unable to create a new one?

Hey! On free tier if you delete it you won’t be able to create a new one.

In my case I just wanna run python script every day and knowing which one failed or not. I guess there is some alternative. Im gonna try to self host prefect for now
Ive added to my k3s cluster Prefect (using helm). Ive protected it with basic auth and a public domain to access it. Now I have to learn how to make a deployment to my custom prefect instance 😅

Well I have my prefect server, but my worker got an issue. In my helm setup, I have :
because rn my deployment are crashing because of that. But the namespace still in default. Idk what I miss... Also the helm chart said :
Copy code
# -- the namespace where the jobs would spawn. If unset, spawns in the same namespace as the worker controller. Requires role.namespace to be set with the same value.
jobNamespace: null
