Fix Version/s: 1.9.0
> Document when Jinja substitution occurs

> Key: AIRFLOW-1505
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AIRFLOW-1505
> Project: Apache Airflow
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Trevor Edwards
> Assignee: Trevor Edwards
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 1.9.0
>
>
> It is not explicitly mentioned anywhere in the documentation when Jinja
> template substitution occurs. It would be helpful to note this to prevent
> users from being confused when trying to use Jinja substitution in operators.
> The DAG provided in https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AIRFLOW-1504 is an
> example of a misunderstanding of this. The DAG attempts to print a field
> before it has been substituted, and if the user does not know when
> substitution happens, they may believe that substitution has failed.
> The documentation should note that substitution occurs just before the
> pre_execute function is called.
