[GitHub] [airflow] m1racoli commented on issue #26861: Variables set via environment not accessible via HTTP API

   I believe that the Airflow UI and the HTTP API serve fundamentally different purposes. The Airflow UI not showing variables can be considered an inconvenience to an end user.
   
   In contrast the HTTP API serves as an extension to the Python API, accessed by other tools and services.
   
   Removing the ability to access variables as they would be available to the code would remove it as a source of truth. In particular it breaks our integrations for test automation we have built for our Airflow setups.
