Hey folks 🙂 Is there a way to enrich a task state with additional variables? I know this can be done when using signals, but I would like to add some custom variables to a task state even without using signals. The main reason for doing this is to consume the variables in state handlers

Since tasks don't directly return state objects unless they're using signals, this isn't currently possible from within a task definition itself.

I'm trying to attach dbt logs returned from DbtShellTask. I'd like to have them in the state object so I can use them in a state handler and send them to Slack

If you're returning all the stdout from the shell task, then wouldn't that info already be available in the state handler?

Didn't think about this, let me try 🙂
