Webhook

Block that enables calling webhooks. Methods:

​
aload 

aload(cls, name: str, validate: bool = True, client: Optional['PrefectClient'] = None) -> 'Self'
Retrieves data from the block document with the given name for the block type that corresponds with the current class and returns an instantiated version of the current class with the data stored in the block document. If a block document for a given block type is saved with a different schema than the current class calling aload, a warning will be raised. If the current class schema is a subset of the block document schema, the block can be loaded as normal using the default validate = True. If the current class schema is a superset of the block document schema, aload must be called with validate set to False to prevent a validation error. In this case, the block attributes will default to None and must be set manually and saved to a new block document before the block can be used as expected. Args:
  • name: The name or slug of the block document. A block document slug is a string with the format <block_type_slug>/<block_document_name>
  • validate: If False, the block document will be loaded without Pydantic validating the block schema. This is useful if the block schema has changed client-side since the block document referred to by name was saved.
  • client: The client to use to load the block document. If not provided, the default client will be injected.
Raises:
  • ValueError: If the requested block document is not found.
Returns:
  • An instance of the current class hydrated with the data stored in the
  • block document with the specified name.
Examples: Load from a Block subclass with a block document name: 
class Custom(Block):
    message: str

Custom(message="Hello!").save("my-custom-message")

loaded_block = await Custom.aload("my-custom-message")
Load from Block with a block document slug: 
class Custom(Block):
    message: str

Custom(message="Hello!").save("my-custom-message")

loaded_block = await Block.aload("custom/my-custom-message")
Migrate a block document to a new schema: 
# original class
class Custom(Block):
    message: str

Custom(message="Hello!").save("my-custom-message")

# Updated class with new required field
class Custom(Block):
    message: str
    number_of_ducks: int

loaded_block = await Custom.aload("my-custom-message", validate=False)

# Prints UserWarning about schema mismatch

loaded_block.number_of_ducks = 42

load 

load(cls, name: str, validate: bool = True, client: Optional['PrefectClient'] = None) -> 'Self'
Retrieves data from the block document with the given name for the block type that corresponds with the current class and returns an instantiated version of the current class with the data stored in the block document. If a block document for a given block type is saved with a different schema than the current class calling load, a warning will be raised. If the current class schema is a subset of the block document schema, the block can be loaded as normal using the default validate = True. If the current class schema is a superset of the block document schema, load must be called with validate set to False to prevent a validation error. In this case, the block attributes will default to None and must be set manually and saved to a new block document before the block can be used as expected. Args:
  • name: The name or slug of the block document. A block document slug is a string with the format <block_type_slug>/<block_document_name>
  • validate: If False, the block document will be loaded without Pydantic validating the block schema. This is useful if the block schema has changed client-side since the block document referred to by name was saved.
  • client: The client to use to load the block document. If not provided, the default client will be injected.

  • ValueError: If the requested block document is not found.
Returns:
  • An instance of the current class hydrated with the data stored in the

Load from Block with a block document slug: 
class Custom(Block):
    message: str

Custom(message="Hello!").save("my-custom-message")

loaded_block = Block.load("custom/my-custom-message")
Migrate a block document to a new schema: 
# original class
class Custom(Block):
    message: str

Custom(message="Hello!").save("my-custom-message")

# Updated class with new required field
class Custom(Block):

​
load_from_ref 

load_from_ref(cls, ref: Union[str, UUID, dict[str, Any]], validate: bool = True, client: 'PrefectClient | None' = None) -> Self
Retrieves data from the block document by given reference for the block type that corresponds with the current class and returns an instantiated version of the current class with the data stored in the block document. Provided reference can be a block document ID, or a reference data in dictionary format. Supported dictionary reference formats are:
  • {"block_document_id": <block_document_id>}
  • {"block_document_slug": <block_document_slug>}
If a block document for a given block type is saved with a different schema than the current class calling load, a warning will be raised. If the current class schema is a subset of the block document schema, the block can be loaded as normal using the default validate = True. If the current class schema is a superset of the block document schema, load must be called with validate set to False to prevent a validation error. In this case, the block attributes will default to None and must be set manually and saved to a new block document before the block can be used as expected. Args:
  • ref: The reference to the block document. This can be a block document ID, or one of supported dictionary reference formats.
  • validate: If False, the block document will be loaded without Pydantic validating the block schema. This is useful if the block schema has changed client-side since the block document referred to by name was saved.
  • client: The client to use to load the block document. If not provided, the default client will be injected.
Raises:
  • ValueError: If invalid reference format is provided.
  • ValueError: If the requested block document is not found.
Returns:
  • An instance of the current class hydrated with the data stored in the
  • block document with the specified name.

​
model_dump 

model_dump(self) -> dict[str, Any]

​
model_json_schema

TODO: stop overriding this method - use GenerateSchema in ConfigDict instead?

​
model_validate

​
register_type_and_schema 

register_type_and_schema(cls, client: Optional['PrefectClient'] = None)
Makes block available for configuration with current Prefect API. Recursively registers all nested blocks. Registration is idempotent. Args:
  • client: Optional client to use for registering type and schema with the Prefect API. A new client will be created and used if one is not provided.

​
save 

save(self, name: Optional[str] = None, overwrite: bool = False, client: Optional['PrefectClient'] = None)
Saves the values of a block as a block document. Args:
  • name: User specified name to give saved block document which can later be used to load the block document.
  • overwrite: Boolean value specifying if values should be overwritten if a block document with the specified name already exists.

​
ser_model

​
validate_block_type_slug 

validate_block_type_slug(cls, values: Any) -> Any
