Improve visibility of flow ID about ui HOT 5 CLOSED

Hi @wangm23456 could you clarify what you mean?

from ui.

Hi @joshmeek! Maybe he means that there is no information about flow_id in ui. For example, I have a similar situation when I need to run flow through api. In the parameter, if I'm not mistaken, mutate flow_create_run needs to be passed flow_id, and in this case, you first have to get flow_id by the name of flow through the query, and then use it for launch.

@bralbral thank you! But how can I get the flow_id by the name? What's the relation between flow_id and flow name?

@joshmeek my code:
I don't know where is the flow_id? I can't find it in doc.

    flow = Flow("me")
    
    debug = Parameter("debug", default=True)
    log_file = Parameter("log_file", default=None)

    flow.add_task(base_args)
    flow.add_task(me)

    miami.set_upstream(base_args, flow=flow)
    base_args.bind(debug=debug, log_file=log_file, flow=flow)
    me.bind(args=base_args, flow=flow)

    flow.register(project_name="me",labels=["me"])

    c = Client()
    c.create_flow_run(
            flow_id=flow.name,
            parameters=dict(
                debug=self._debug,
                log_file=self._run_log_file,))

from ui.

@wangm23456 when you run .register the flow ID is output to stdout. Otherwise you could query for it using graphql

query {
    flow { id }
}

or you can see it in the address bar of the UI on the flow's page. I'm going to transfer this issue to the UI repo because like @bralbral said it isn't easily displayed 🙂
