dstandish commented on issue #6376: [AIRFLOW-5705] Add secrets backend and support for AWS SSM
URL: https://github.com/apache/airflow/pull/6376#issuecomment-598084161
 
 
   updated:
   * can only specify one "alternative" secrets backend
   * by default it is `env var > metastore`; if a backend is specified, it is `alternative > env var > metastore`
   
   Config looks like this:
   ```
   [secrets_backend]
   class_name = my.fave.SecretsBackendClass
   config_json = {"my secrets class": "needs json to work properly"}
   ```
   
   One thing I liked about the behavior before is that airflow had no opinion about secrets backend;  now we have default secrets backends and optionally "alternative" secrets backend, which is maybe a little confusing.  But overall makes the config simpler so I'm still in support of the now-current approach.
