描述

Hello,

Currently, you can define a new connection/variable in several ways.

  • Metabase
  • Environment variable
  • Secret backend

However, only the connections defined with the Metabase are visible from the Web UI. This is surprising among users because a natural way to check connection/variable configuration is to use the Web UI, which may not show complete information. I would be happy if there was a warning stating that not all connections / variables are visible when the user has a configured secret backend or when the AIRFLOW__CONN_* /AIRFLOW__VAR_* environment variable is defined. This should appear above the list of connections/variables.

This change is intended to improve the user experience.

Best regards, Kamil Breguła

研究方向
Investigate how Airflow currently detects environment variable connections and secret backends. Look at the 'connections' UI component in airflow/www/ to determine where to add a warning message. Check if any discussion in the issue comments clarifies implementation details. Ensure the warning only appears when there are invisible configurations. The change should be small and localized.
