Airflow unpause dag programmatically?

Question

I have a dag that we\'ll deploy to multiple different airflow instances and in our airflow.cfg we have dags_are_paused_at_creation = True but for this specific

Answer 1

I created the following function to do so if anyone else runs into this issue:

import airflow.settings
from airflow.models import DagModel
def unpause_dag(dag):
    """
    A way to programatically unpause a DAG.
    :param dag: DAG object
    :return: dag.is_paused is now False
    """
    session = airflow.settings.Session()
    try:
        qry = session.query(DagModel).filter(DagModel.dag_id == dag.dag_id)
        d = qry.first()
        d.is_paused = False
        session.commit()
    except:
        session.rollback()
    finally:
        session.close()
