Configuration Reference

This page contains the list of all available Airflow configurations for the apache-airflow-providers-openlineage provider that can be set in the airflow.cfg file or using environment variables.

Note

The configuration embedded in provider packages started to be used as of Airflow 2.7.0. Previously the configuration was described and configured in the Airflow core package - so if you are using Airflow below 2.7.0, look at Airflow documentation for the list of available configuration options that were available in Airflow core.

Note

For more information see Setting Configuration Options.
