> With webserver rbac=True and core fernet_key set, variable values are always encrypted, but they are only marked as is_encrypted = true in the database if the user explicitly checks theĀ *Is Encrypted* checkbox on the variable create screen. If a variable is set up this way, then it is not correctly displayed in the UI and calls to Variable.get return the cipher text instead of the decrypted value.
> Workarounds are:
>  * Explicitly check the box in the UI if you know you've got a fernet key set up.
>  * Edit the variable after creation and re-enter the value. On the edit screen there is no checkbox, and is_encrypted is properly set to true on saving.
> Since the only right answer is is_encrypted = true, it seems like the checkbox should not be displayed (as in the edit screen and as in the non-rbac create screen)
