Tracking issue
Closes #6662
Why are the changes needed?
An error happens when running a ContainerTask task with
typing.Union
inputs with flyte copilot.Context: Support for Union types in the Flyte IDL was added in #1349, but there is still a small missing piece in flytecopilot to support downloading Union-type scalars for ContainerTask flyte tasks. This PR adds this small missing piece.
What changes were proposed in this pull request?
Add a logical path to flytecopilot for
typing.Union
types.How was this patch tested?
Tested in my flyte deployment, and confirmed that
typing.Union
inputs now are correctly downloaded by the flytecopilot init container.Labels
