Hi, There are two ways shown to create launch plans with LaunchPlan.get_or_create - One is this

from flytekit import CronSchedule, LaunchPlan  # noqa: E402

# creates a launch plan that runs every minute.
cron_lp = LaunchPlan.get_or_create(
    name="my_cron_scheduled_lp",
    workflow=date_formatter_wf,
    schedule=CronSchedule(
        # Note that the ``kickoff_time_input_arg`` matches the workflow input we defined above: kickoff_time
        # But in case you are using the AWS scheme of schedules and not using the native scheduler then switch over the schedule parameter with cron_expression
        schedule="*/1 * * * *",  # Following schedule runs every min
        kickoff_time_input_arg="kickoff_time",
    ),
)

, this seems to be in a separate file, which makes sense, I would like to have all my launch plans in one file and import the required workflows from other files. And the second is this

from datetime import timedelta  # noqa: E402
from flytekit import FixedRate, LaunchPlan  # noqa: E402

@task
def be_positive(name: str) -> str:
    return f"You're awesome, {name}"

@workflow
def positive_wf(name: str):
    reminder = be_positive(name=name)
    print(f"{reminder}")

fixed_rate_lp = LaunchPlan.get_or_create(
    name="my_fixed_rate_lp",
    workflow=positive_wf,
    # Note that the workflow above doesn't accept any kickoff time arguments.
    # We just omit the ``kickoff_time_input_arg`` from the FixedRate schedule invocation
    schedule=FixedRate(duration=timedelta(minutes=10)),
    fixed_inputs={"name": "you"},
)

where the LaunchPlan.get_or_create call sits below the workflow definition. My question for the second case is - will the launch plan get created when the workflow is registered? I know a default one gets created but I want to know about the one that is defined below the workflow. And for the first case where the launch plans are defined in a separate file, how do I execute the code in this file? Does it need to be inside a task and then I execute this task using pyflyte or is there a way to run the launch plan get_or_create code directly on pyflyte?

cc @glamorous-carpet-83516 can you PTAL

looking

I did not launch the workflow. Since the launch plan has a schedule to run every 5 mins, wouldn’t it be launched automatically if the launch plan is activated when it is created?

sorry, investigating
