Change the apache airflow webserver console context root path

Question

Is there a way (preferably via configuration) to change the default url context path root of airflow webserver

i:e instead of deployment the server like

localhost:8080/admin/...

I would like the root path be like

localhost:8080/mywebserver/admin/...

I would like to avoid a reverse proxy in front of the airflow just to rewrite the root path.

Answer 1

I checked the [webserver] section in airflow.cfg and able to find the base_url configuration that helping to change the default URL context path.

Update the airflow.cfg and restart the webserver.

[webserver]
base_url = http://localhost:8080/mywebserver

Airflow web ui with updated base_url
