The cause here is that when `_serialize_template_field()` encounters non JSON serializable objects, it uses `str()` for serialization. Python `__repr__` for these objects breaks long string values across multiple lines: ``` 'value': 'This is a longer test phrase. We are checking if this handles ' 'regular sentences.' ``` Now if this value was registered with the masker without new lines in between, redaction wont happen since patterns do not match exactly. ### Fix The fix is to attempt converting such objects to serializable formats by json. To do this, added a `to_serializable()` helper function that converts objects with `.to_dict()` methods (standard in Kubernetes, boto3, and other similar such objects) to plain dictionaries before serialization. Then use json.dumps() instead of str() to produce clean json output. It works because json spec doesn't allow line breaks inside string values and `json.dumps()` works on these converted objects. This leads now to secret patterns matching correctly -> masking succeeds. ### Testing Use a simple macro like this: ```python def mask_str(value: str): """ Mask a literal string value so it isn't exposed in logs or task instance details. """ mask_secret(value) return value class MyMacroMacros(AirflowPlugin): name = "my_macro" macros = [mask_str] ``` DAG: ```python import logging from datetime import datetime from airflow.providers.standard.operators.bash import BashOperator from airflow.sdk import DAG from airflow.providers.cncf.kubernetes.operators.pod import KubernetesPodOperator from airflow.providers.standard.operators.empty import EmptyOperator logger = logging.getLogger(__name__) DAG_ID = "my_dag" default_args = { "start_date": datetime(2017, 8, 9, hour=5), } def create_dag(dag_id: str = DAG_ID) -> DAG: dag = DAG( dag_id=dag_id, default_args=default_args, schedule=None, doc_md=__doc__, ) empty_task = EmptyOperator(dag=dag, task_id="empty_task") cmds = ["/bin/bash", "-c"] kpo = { "TEST_PHRASE1": f"{{{{ macros.my_macro.mask_str('This is a test phrase.') }}}}", "TEST_PHRASE2": f"{{{{ macros.my_macro.mask_str('This is a longer test phrase.
