when optional secret is defined in scaledjob.yaml but the secret is not provided in the currently created kubernetes environment because its optional.

             - name: AWS_TIMESTREAM_SECRETKEY
                valueFrom:
                  secretKeyRef:

                    key: AWS_TIMESTREAM_SECRETKEY
                    optional: true
