Is prefect_slack deprecated? I can’t get it to be recognized as a block with cloud or with a local orion setup that I’m testing.

I’m just getting started with prefect (2.7.4) and was trying to use prefect_slack with a local instance of orion. I’ve also installed prefect_snowflake and prefect_dbt. Both snowflake and dbt are automatically recognized as block types, but prefect_slack is not. When I try to run the
prefect block register -m prefect_slack.credentials
it reports
Successfully registered 0 blocks
. I still just see the built-in slack-webhook notifier block from
prefect block type ls
. I’ve tried this with a completely clean install of only prefect packages into a python 3.9.16 venv. I’ve also tried with prefect cloud.

Hi @Chris Whatley - thanks for raising this! We've opened a PR to update the entrypoint on the module to make prefect-slack's blocks discoverable as you'd expect, sorry about that!
