👋 I have a Flyte workflow I want to create that can be thought of as a data backfill job. The number of backfill jobs is variable and passed as a parameter. I want a flyte workflow that will take that input and create a chain of sequential tasks, where each job waits for the previous to finish. Can this be done, and, if so, how? I am familiar with using dynamic tasks for parallel jobs, but not sequential

Infact there is a workflow that does this already
Check pyflyte backfill command
Or flyteremote.backfill
You can look at the code
It will do what you want I think almost exactly

Thanks! Can you walk me through a way of doing it custom? I used the idea of a backfill as an abstraction, what I am actually doing is a little more complex than a standard backfill
I am just looking for logic to include in a dynamic task to accomplish this
