### Apache Airflow version 2.7.3 ### What happened Upon setting the environment variable AIRFLOW__DATABASE__SQL_ALCHEMY_CONNECT_ARGS to pass arguments as described in https://airflow.apache.org/docs/apache-airflow/stable/howto/set-up-database.html#setting-up-a-postgresql-database, the following error occurs: ` File "/home/airflow/.local/bin/airflow", line 5, in <module> from airflow.__main__ import main File "/home/airflow/.local/lib/python3.10/site-packages/airflow/__init__.py", line 68, in <module> settings.initialize() File "/home/airflow/.local/lib/python3.10/site-packages/airflow/settings.py", line 546, in initialize configure_orm() File "/home/airflow/.local/lib/python3.10/site-packages/airflow/settings.py", line 238, in configure_orm connect_args = conf.getimport("database", "sql_alchemy_connect_args") File "/home/airflow/.local/lib/python3.10/site-packages/airflow/configuration.py", line 1199, in getimport raise AirflowConfigException( airflow.exceptions.AirflowConfigException: The object could not be loaded. Please check "sql_alchemy_connect_args" key in "database" section. Current value: "{"timeout": 120}". ` I tracked the issue to the following code snippet: https://github.com/apache/airflow/blob/8fbacb8a5fb4168a335ad080a6b806fee3d85737/airflow/settings.py#L237C1-L243C1 After changing line 238 to ` connect_args = conf.getjson("database", "sql_alchemy_connect_args")` the error was resolved. It also seems reasonable, as these arguments should not import modules but parameters to be passed on in line 242. If this is indeed a bug, I'm happy to create a pull request. I checked the current development version, the code is still the same as in version 2.7.3 that I use. ### What you think should happen instead The connection arguments should be parsed correctly, the DB connection should be created. ### How to reproduce Set the environment variable to {"timeout": 30} as described in https://airflow.apache.org/docs/apache-airflow/stable/configurations-ref.html#sql-alchemy-connect-args ### Operating System Debian GNU/Linux 11 (bullseye) ### Versions of Apache Airflow Providers apache-airflow-providers-amazon==8.10.0 apache-airflow-providers-celery==3.4.1 apache-airflow-providers-cncf-kubernetes==7.8.0 apache-airflow-providers-common-sql==1.8.0 apache-airflow-providers-daskexecutor==1.1.0 apache-airflow-providers-docker==3.8.0 apache-airflow-providers-elasticsearch==5.1.0 apache-airflow-providers-ftp==3.6.0 apache-airflow-providers-google==10.11.0 apache-airflow-providers-grpc==3.3.0 apache-airflow-providers-hashicorp==3.5.0 apache-airflow-providers-http==4.6.0 apache-airflow-providers-imap==3.4.0 apache-airflow-providers-microsoft-azure==8.1.0 apache-airflow-providers-mysql==5.4.0 apache-airflow-providers-odbc==4.1.0 apache-airflow-providers-openlineage==1.2.0 apache-airflow-providers-postgres==5.7.1 apache-airflow-providers-redis==3.4.0 apache-airflow-providers-sendgrid==3.3.0 apache-airflow-providers-sftp==4.7.0 apache-airflow-providers-slack==8.3.0 apache-airflow-providers-snowflake==5.1.0 apache-airflow-providers-sqlite==3.5.0 apache-airflow-providers-ssh==3.8.1 ### Deployment Other 3rd-party Helm chart ### Deployment details Airflow Helm Chart (User Community) https://github.com/airflow-helm/charts/tree/main/charts/airflow using the Airflow image https://hub.docker.com/layers/apache/airflow/2.7.3-python3.10/images/sha256-af4c1ab9472d754a8247e9a44d922db67422584e4a88b5339012fe145171572a?context=explore ### Anything else _No response_ ### Are you willing to submit PR? - [X] Yes I am willing to submit a PR! ### Code of Conduct - [X] I agree to follow this project's [Code of Conduct](https://github.com/apache/airflow/blob/main/CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md) -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
