I've followed this tutorial trying to set up Prefect with Google Cloud Run. However after following all the steps, and running the deployment, the Flow run is still Late after 5 minutes. How can I debug what have gone wrong?

Hi Theodor! Thanks for trying the tutorial. Where are you running your Prefect agent? In your dev machine, or in a cloud VM? The flows showing as Late indicate that they haven't been picked up and run by an agent yet. I recommend checking the console output of your agent to see if it reported any errors.

@Theodor Sjöstedt I used this walkthrough and a few others by Anna to get my stuff off the ground. I'd be happy to help you out if you'd like.

Thank you both! The problem is that there was no agent running, and I don't understand how to set up an agent in GCP. Do I need a dedicated VM to do this? I cant have the agent running on my laptop right? That kind of defeats the purpose of having a cloud based scheduler, especially if we schedule flows to run 24/7.... 🙃

Yeah. I opted to just have an agent running on a small vm instance.
