    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AIRFLOW-3620?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16753374#comment-16753374 ] 

jack commented on AIRFLOW-3620:
-------------------------------

The docs has example using the BashOperator [https://airflow.apache.org/lineage.html]

Can you post your code so it's possible to trace the issue?

> When creating a data pipeline where one task's input is its upstream task's output, it seems the only way to automatically coordinate these is to use the lineage feature and set {{inlets = \{"auto": True}}}. Doing this with a PythonOperator allows one to get the input and output data sources for the task by passing in the context and getting {{task.inlets}} and {{task.outlets}} values.
> This fails with the BashOperator. With a template including something like {{{{task.inlets[0]}}}}, it throws an exception, and templating with {{{{task.inlets}}}} or {{{{task.outlets}}}} always reveals these values to be an empty list.
