conf is not getting passed from TriggerDagRunOperator controller dag to target dag

[uns1]

Apache Airflow version: 1.10.9 & 1.10.11
Environment:

• Cloud provider or hardware configuration: Local PC running Docker on Windows through WSL2
• OS (e.g. from /etc/os-release): Debian GNU/Linux 10 (buster)
• Kernel (e.g. uname -a): Linux ba34d8b76277 4.19.104-microsoft-standard Improving the search functionality in the graph view #1 SMP Wed Feb 19 06:37:35 UTC 2020 x86_64 GNU/Linux
• Install tools: Docker + Python 3.7
• Others: PostgreSQL + Local Executor

What happened:
I'm trying to run the example dag that triggers another dag. When i run the example, the run is unsuccessful because dag_run.conf is not passed to the target dag. E.g., in the TriggerDagRunOperator in the controller dag has a conf={"message":"hello world"} argument that never makes it to the target dag - target dag's conf is NoneType.

Moreover, the dag runs fine if run from the CLI

What you expected to happen:
The conf in the target dag should be the same as the conf in the controller dag

What do you think went wrong?
Unsure - previous JIRA post suggests this has something to do with pickling. However, that post refers to SQLite being the root of the issue whereas i'm using Postgres

How to reproduce it:
Running the example dag for triggering other dags on the above configuration - I suspect this is not a common issue as I do not find a lot of resources related to this error on git, jira, stackoverflow etc

Anything else we need to know:
Exact replica of https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AIRFLOW-46 However, the JIRA post suggests that this only happens on SQLite whereas this is happening on Postgres for me

How often does this happen?
Problem occurs every time I run the example dag for triggering another dag

Any relevant logs to include?

I think this should have been solved by #9853
Can you please check against Airflow 2 ?
