> > What's the use-case of writing Variables to an external backend? > > Say we are in a migration process to move DAGs from an old airflow cluster to new airflow cluster. And many DAGs shared the same airflow variable, some of them reads variable and some of them writes the variable. We need a way to double write the variable to both cluster during the migration, hence the PR to support that. Why not writing and running it as custom code? it does seem like your specific case and not a common feature that people would be using. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
