According to https://airflow.apache.org/api.html I can trigger an Airflow DAG like so:

curl -X POST \
  http://localhost:8080/api/experimental/dags/<DAG_ID>/dag_runs \
  -H 'Cache-Control: no-cache' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{"conf":"{\"key\":\"value\"}"}'

This seems to work ok for me, but I cannot figure out how to access the key/value stuff in the conf object being passed in.

I tried this:

something = dag.params.get("key", "unknown")

But it doesn't seem to work.

Does anyone know how to do this?
