I don't see this in the [FAQ](https://airflow.apache.org/docs/stable/faq.html) I am trying to figure out how to store a password in Airflow variable table. I see from https://github.com/apache/airflow/blob/v1-10-stable/docs/ui.rst#variable-view that Airflow UI won't show the password if the key name has e.g. `api_key` in it, but I also see that the password is stored unencrypted in the Airflow `variable` table. I'm also a bit confused because Admin -> Variables list has a column `is_encrypted`, but when I go to add a variable, I am prompted for name and value -- there is nothing about encryption. So how do encrypted variables work? ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
