You can rename a task using

with_options

and pass in the parameters you would like displayed in the name

@terrence I saw several people asked about this.

with_options

is only available in API. I wonder if we can add this under Concepts/Tasks? I can work on adding it

Is it possible to make this work with

task.map

Copy code

@task
def say_hello(name: str) -> None:
    print(name)

This works

Copy code

names = ["a", "b"]
for name in names:
    say_hello.with_options(name=f"say {name}"}

Is it possible to make it work with

Copy code

names = ["a", "b"]
say_hello.map(names)

We don’t support changing options on mapped tasks yet, we’re thinking about a nice way to expose this though.
