New feature highlights

Access sensitive information in generic pipeline nodes

Jupyter notebooks, Python scripts or R scripts might require access to resources that are protected using sensitive information, such as an API key or a user id and password. If you are running pipelines on Kubeflow Pipelines or Apache Airflow you can take advantage of [Kubernetes secrets](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/configuration/secret/) that are defined in your cluster. Starting with version 3.9 you can [configure pipelines to expose these secrets as environment variables](https://elyra.readthedocs.io/en/v3.9.0/user_guide/best-practices-file-based-nodes.html#handling-sensitive-information), which notebooks or scripts can access.



Pipeline CLI: identify pipeline dependencies

The [`elyra-pipeline describe`](https://elyra.readthedocs.io/en/v3.9.0/user_guide/pipelines.html#describing-a-pipeline-from-the-command-line-interface) CLI command output now includes information about the following dependencies for nodes that utilize [generic components](https://elyra.readthedocs.io/en/v3.9.0/user_guide/pipeline-components.html#generic-components): container images, data volumes, and Kubernetes secrets. The machine readable output (produced when the `--json` option is specified) is most commonly used to automate processes, such as impact analysis and dependency checking. In the example below the output of the command is piped to the [`jq` command-line processor](https://stedolan.github.io/jq/), which extracts information about the container images that the pipeline's notebooks or script are executed in:


$ elyra-pipeline describe --json my.pipeline | jq '.dependencies.container_images[]'
"tensorflow/tensorflow:2.8.0"


This information could be used to identify pipelines that use a specific container image version or to verify that the container images are available in a specific container registry.

Create code snippets from notebook cells

Create a code snippet by [selecting one or more cells in a Jupyter notebook](https://elyra.readthedocs.io/en/v3.9.0/user_guide/code-snippets.html#creating-a-code-snippet).



Documentation: Running Elyra in an air gapped environment

The new [documentation topic](https://elyra.readthedocs.io/en/v3.9.0/recipes/running-elyra-in-air-gapped-environment.html) covers considerations for running Elyra in an air gapped environment.
