Prefect Community

Hi folks! I'm trying to get set up to run an agent &amp; the deployment-flows it manages in an EKS cluster. So far I can start the agent &amp; it is monitoring the expected queue, but it turns out to be running as user `system:serviceaccount:prefect:default` which does not have (and should not have) the necessary permissions. How can I change that to run as a more appropriate user/role?

I'm bringing up the agent from a yaml file using `kubectl apply -f`, if that's relevant

How did you install the agent?
and what user / role do you want to use?

OK so this turned out not to be a prefect-specific issue, but rather me not understanding what I was looking at in several configs &amp; having things set up wrong as a consequence. The last two parts of that user string are the namespace &amp; role; the IAM role that I needed to use was allowing the wrong namespace, and the yaml for the agent was using the wrong role.

Thanks for sharing the details of the problem/resolution, Shirley!
