bbovenzi opened a new pull request, #76954: URL: https://github.com/apache/airflow/pull/76954
When refreshing the Dag or plugin import-error count failed, the Dashboard stats, the Dags list header and the Plugins page showed a full-width "500 Internal Server Error" banner next to the count. These requests only fail when the API server or metadata database is having trouble, or when the user's role lacks the permission to see them. In those cases the rest of the page is already failing too, or the user can't do anything about it, and the banner pushed the page content down. The count widgets now fail silently: they keep the last loaded count, or show nothing if it never loaded, which is what already happened on a failed first load. The failed request is still visible in the browser's network tools. The plugin widget's special case for 403 is removed as well, since it only existed to hide that banner. ### Screenshots Each page loaded its count normally, then the next refresh returned 500 (mocked in the browser). The stack had no plugin import errors, so the plugin count's first response was mocked as one error. | | Before | After | |---|---|---| | Dashboard | <img width="560" alt="dashboard-refetch-failed-before" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/4ca261ac-68cb-4eaa-a1e0-774e24b2c37c"; /> | <img width="560" alt="dashboard-refetch-failed-after" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/cd166ebf-9059-4dbf-b364-bc39bca46b3d"; /> | | Dags list | <img width="560" alt="dags-list-refetch-failed-before" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/8712c434-b92c-4ed7-851f-86327ca2e218"; /> | <img width="560" alt="dags-list-refetch-failed-after" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/ae981c5f-7a2a-4bdc-aa51-0e52ca35d69a"; /> | | Plugins | <img width="560" alt="plugins-refetch-failed-before" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/7f1b75bf-cf07-4686-a7a3-8c55c9938690"; /> | <img width="560" alt="plugins-refetch-failed-after" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/2cb8142d-471b-4f05-a9c1-55463adab02c"; /> | --- ##### Was generative AI tooling used to co-author this PR? - [X] Yes (please specify the tool below) Generated-by: Claude Code (Opus 5.5) following [the guidelines](https://github.com/apache/airflow/blob/main/contributing-docs/05_pull_requests.rst#gen-ai-assisted-contributions) -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
