What's the best way to add password authentication and a user to the Airflow webserver?

That link appears to be broken, but https://airflow.apache.org/docs/stable/1.10.13/security.html#password works. These would seem to be the required steps: • To add the

password

subpackage, modify the

pip_url

for

airflow

in

meltano.yml

to

apache-airflow[password]

, and re-install it using

meltano install orchestrator airflow

. • Set

webserver.authenticate

to

true

and

webserver.auth_backend

to

airflow.contrib.auth.backends.password_auth

using

meltano config airflow set webserver authenticate true && meltano config set webserver auth_backend airflow.contrib.auth.backends.password_auth

• Create a new user using Python in Airflow's dedicated venv:

.meltano/orchestrators/airflow/venv/bin/python

(see docs for commands to run)

with the latest airflow the command is

meltano invoke airflow users create

and I don’t think this step is in the documentation?

@dave_lyons Thanks for reporting this! @amanda.folson Can you please check this out?

Will do!
