dstandish edited a comment on issue #6376: [WIP] [AIRFLOW-5705] Add creds 
backend classes including AWS SSM
URL: https://github.com/apache/airflow/pull/6376#issuecomment-544334413
 
 
   > Will the web interface work?
   
   No web UI configurability.  Currently we can provide connections with env 
vars and those cannot be changed with web UI either.  It would be the same 
here, when using an alternative creds provider. 
   
   > How do you configure connections in other services?
   
   However you want!  The point here is to provide a way to override default 
mechanisms of creds provision.  Currently it's env vars and metastore.  With 
this change, you have flexibility.  Kindof like `hostname_callable`; use 
whatever function you need to use.  Just return a URI (or _URIs_) given a 
`conn_id`.
   
   We can provide some built-in standard creds providers (e.g. using AWS SSM).  
And in this case we would document how to set up.  But the main intention is to 
refactor just a tiny bit to allow for users to override to suit their needs.
