Anyone tried deploying their kedro pipeline in Prefect Cloud. Thanks..

Not personally, but we've got docs on Prefect deployment - have you run into any issues?
e
yup, it was working when deploying locally but when I used their cloud platform, the flow cannot be retrieved.

could you share a screenshot or traceback of how the error looks like?

Copy code
Flow could not be retrieved from deployment.
Traceback (most recent call last):

your absolute Windows paths seem to be leaking into the configuration somehow @Eluard Camota 🤔

Yup, using this function won't work with the prefect cloud.
Copy code
def prefect_deploy(
    pipeline_name, env, deployment_name, work_pool_name, work_queue_name, version
):
    """Register a Kedro pipeline as a Prefect flow."""

    # Pipeline name to execute
    pipeline_name = pipeline_name or "__default__"

    # Use standard deployment configuration for local execution. If you require a different
    # infrastructure, check the API docs for Deployments at: <https://docs.prefect.io/latest/api-ref/prefect/deployments/>
    deployment = Deployment.build_from_flow(
        flow=my_flow,
        name=deployment_name,
        path=str(Path.cwd()),
        version=version,
        parameters={
            "pipeline_name": pipeline_name,
            "env": env,
        },
        infra_overrides={"env": {"PREFECT_LOGGING_LEVEL": "DEBUG"}},
        work_pool_name=work_pool_name,
        work_queue_name=work_queue_name,
        # schedule={"cron": "0 0 * * 6"}
    )

    deployment.apply()
I think it's because of the path, I might need to store the flow code into a docker image and use that to deploy to prefect cloud so it can access it. Still figuring it.
