Hello @Knowledgeknow
Thanks for using Cloudera Community. This is an Old Post, yet Wish to convey that Cloudera shall assist with Airflow Issues (Install, Upgrade, Maintenance) dealing with Airflow shipped by Cloudera. Currently, CDE (Cloudera Data Engineering) allows Airflow to be deployed on Public Cloud & Private Cloud with End-To-End Support offered by Cloudera.
You haven't shared whether your Q deals with CDE Airflow or Standalone Airflow. If your Post deals with reviewing an Issue with Installing Standalone Airflow which isn't Supported per-se. Henceforth, our engagement would be Limited. For CDE Airflow, the AuthN for Airflow UI is managed implicitly via Single-SignOn (Once your Team is Authenticated to Cloudera Management Console) & doesn't require any manual intervention. For CLI, CDE offers Token Based & Key Based AuthN.
If your Team is interested in CDE Airflow, Let us know & we can get in touch with your Team.
