How can I enable the API in AWS Managed Workflows for Apache Airflow?

I'm testing the waters for running Apache Airflow on AWS through the Managed Workflows for Apache Airflow (MWAA). The version of Airflow that AWS have deployed and are managing for me is 1.10.12.

When I try to access the v1 REST API at /api/experimental/test I get back status code 403 Forbidden.

Is it possible to enable the experimental API in MWAA? How?

By default, api.auth_backend configuration option is set to airflow.api.auth.backend.deny_all in MWAA environments. You need to override it to one of the authentication methods mentioned in the documentation as shown in the figure bellow:

Note: it is highly discouraged to use airflow.api.auth.backend.default as it'll leave your environment publicly accessible.

[2021/07/29] Edit: Based on this comment, AWS blocked access to the REST API.

I think MWAA provide a REST endpoint to use the CLI

https://$WEB_SERVER_HOSTNAME/aws_mwaa/cli

It's quite confusing because you fisrt need to create a cli-token using the awscli to then hit the endpoint using that token. You will need a policy to allow your awscli to request that token. Lastly there isn't support for all the commands, just a bunch.

Anyway it's all explained on the user guide https://docs.aws.amazon.com/mwaa/latest/userguide/amazon-mwaa-user-guide.pdf
