If you want to learn more about using TaskFlow, you should consult :doc:`the TaskFlow tutorial </tutorial_taskflow_api>`.

Context
-------

When running your callable, Airflow will pass a set of keyword arguments that can be used in your function. This set of kwargs correspond exactly to the :ref:`context variables<templates:variables>` you can use in your Jinja templates.

For this to work, you need to define ``**kwargs`` in your function header, or you can add directly the keyword arguments you would like to get such as ``ti=None`` to have the task instance passed.

Logging
-------

To use logging from your task functions, simply import and use Python's logging system:

.. code-block:: python
logger = logging.getlogger("airflow.task")
Every logging line created this way will be recorded in the task log.
