Question

Hi How can I trigger another flow run from an existing deployment from a flow Say I want to generate a flow run from Flow B as soon as Flow A finishes but they are different and independent flows and deployments Can I do it in Python or an API call

Hey Stefan Here s one way <https docs prefect io api ref prefect deployments prefect deployments run deployment>

Dylan · Answer

This can be called from one flow to start and monitor a flow run of a different deployment

Cheers thanks But I m assuming that would mean the first flow does not finish until the last one dos

Dylan · Answer

You can set a timeout if the timeout is 0 the function will return immediately

So you could have Flow Run A start Flow Run B and continue without waiting for Flow Run B to finish
