Prefect Community

Howdy. Is it possible to invoke Glue Job using Prefect?

You can use the boto3 library for that: Glue — Boto3 Docs 1.26.46 documentation (<http://amazonaws.com|amazonaws.com><https://boto3.amazonaws.com/v1/documentation/api/latest/reference/services/glue.html|)>

Would you mind sharing an example on how to do that?

```glue = boto3.client('glue')
job_run_id = glue.start_job_run(JobName=f'{job_name}')```
And you can fetch the status of the job with:
```glue.get_job_run(JobName=job_name, RunId=job_run_id.get("JobRunId")).get("JobRun").get(
        "JobRunState")```
