A single Prefect 2.0 installation can communicate with multiple Orion APIs, which can help you switch between development, staging, and production environments.
To switch between those, you can use:
prefect profile use dev # or prod or any other profile
As long as each profile points to a different PREFECT_API_URL, you can easily switch between multiple instances.
Each profile can point to:
- a different Prefect Cloud workspace
- a different Prefect Orion API endpoint
