How do I get rid of any example_dag's that initially show up in my deployment's DAG list?

For now, this is unfortunately something someone on the Astronomer team has to do directly. If you’d like us to remove any example_dag's, let us know and we’ll be quick to remove them.

Airflow 1.10’s functionality actually does allow users to do this directly, so you can expect to be able to do so in the future.

Before the 1.9 rollout, just add:

ENV AIRFLOW__CORE__LOAD_EXAMPLES=False

to your Dockerfile and contact someone at Astronomer!
