How to verify that backend parameters are being read on EKS?

[BCantos17]

I am following AWS Connection option 3 here, created a role with the proper permissions and added the annotations as instructed as shown

serviceAccount:
  annotations:
    # replace with the AWS role you have configured for IRSA
    eks.amazonaws.com/role-arn: "arn:aws:iam::XXXXXXXXXX:role/<<MY_ROLE_NAME>>"

but the variables are not being read. Here is the secret being outputted when I run airflow config list

[secrets]
backend = airflow.providers.amazon.aws.secrets.systems_manager.SystemsManagerParameterStoreBackend
backend_kwargs = {"connections_prefix": "/airflow/connections", "variables_prefix": "/airflow/variables", "profile_name": "default"}

and my variables under AWS Parameter Store have the correct prefix such as /airflow/variables/test but nothing is being synced under airflow variables. Everything points to things being okay so I am at a lost. Does anyone know if there are any logs which indict the connection is good or if there are any errors reading into parameter store? I've be looking for a needle in a haystack and have been at this for ages. Any help would be greatly appreicated

Sorry I am an idiot. I was doing airflow variables list and it wasn't synced yet but after I did airflow variables get var and that worked

Adding a feature request to make this more obvious in the UI #873 .
