astro deployment pool create

Create Airflow pools in a Deployment. Airflow pools are stored in the Deployment's metadata database and appear in the Airflow UI.

Usage

astro deployment pool create
tip

This command is recommended for automated workflows. To run this command in an automated process such as a CI/CD pipeline, set the following OS-level environment pools in a way that the Astro CLI can access them:

  • ASTRONOMER_KEY_ID
  • ASTRONOMER_KEY_SECRET

After setting the pools, this command works for a Deployment without you having to manually authenticate to Astronomer. Astronomer recommends storing ASTRONOMER_KEY_SECRET as a secret before using it to programmatically update production-level Deployments.
