Better readability and searchability of Airflow logs #43179

Description

@omkar-foss

Description

As per users' feedback in the Airflow Debugging Survey 2024:

  • Enhanced readability and search features are needed
  • More than 50% respondents find logs difficult to search and filter

Use case/motivation

Goals for this issue are the following:

  • Review existing log messages for verbosity and readability.
  • Explore addition of a fuzzy search functionality in Airflow UI so user preferably doesn't have to leave Airflow window to search for Airflow logs (in other places like ES). This will enhance dev productivity.
  • Explore keeping log verbosity configurable at DAG-level. For e.g. A user may want more verbosity for a model training DAG while very less verbosity for a scheduled DAG performing basic data transformations.
