Dear Apache Airflow Mentors, I hope you are doing well. My name is Rachana Challa, and I am a second-year Computer Science and Engineering student. I am highly interested in contributing to Apache Airflow as part of Google Summer of Code (GSoC) 2025.
While exploring open issues, I found "Forbid extra fields in execution API request and response models" to be an important enhancement that can improve API robustness. I believe this contribution aligns well with the goals of Airflow and would be a great starting point for my GSoC journey. My Contribution Plan: Analyze how extra fields are currently handled in the execution API. Implement stricter validation to reject unnecessary fields. Add unit tests to ensure correctness. Update the relevant API documentation. I have already set up the development environment and started analyzing the relevant codebase. I would love to discuss this further and refine my approach based on community feedback. Looking forward to your guidance and suggestions!
