When using Flyte remote, is there a way to convert inputs/outputs back to the original types if I have access to the code? I.e. if I define a dataclass

TrainingArgs

and use that as an input to a task and then fetch an execution of that task using remote, I'll get a

TrainingargsSchema

object which is generated from the protobuf I guess. Now I'd like to convert that back to a

TrainingArgs

instance. Is this possible?

FlyteWorkflowExecution

used to have

raw_outputs

but I don’t find it in the recent flytekit versions. @high-accountant-32689, any idea why this has been removed? For the time being, you can convert the schema to dict

<http://dataclass_schema.to|dataclass_schema.to>_dict()

or extract the fields directly from the schema

dataclass_schema.epochs

, and create a dataclass.

You can simply type - execution.inputs and this returns a resolver

Thanks @tall-lock-23197 and @freezing-airport-6809, using a type hint works and will return an instance of

TrainingArgs

execution.inputs.get("training_args", as_type=TrainingArgs)
