Run the current Airflow image

You can run your Deployment’s current Airflow image with the KubernetesPodOperator by using the environment variable, ASTRONOMER_AIRFLOW_IMAGE. This environment variable allows you to run KPO tasks using the same Runtime image that your Deployment uses, in a way that won’t be affected by underlying cluster infrastructure changes that might change the base image repository URL. The ASTRONOMER_AIRFLOW_IMAGE environment variable allows you to ensure that your Deployment retrieves the correct image URL.
