    In case if endpoint contain schema, than value from field ``Schema`` ignores.

    Specify the Slack Incoming Webhook URL. It might specified as full url like
    **https://hooks.slack.com/services/T00000000/B00000000/XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX** in this case values
    from ``Slack Webhook Endpoint (Host)`` and ``Schema`` fields ignores.
    Or it might specified as URL path like **T00000000/B00000000/XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX** in this case
    Slack Incoming Webhook URL will build from this field, ``Schema`` and ``Slack Webhook Endpoint (Host)``.

Extra
    Specify the extra parameters (as json dictionary) that can be used in
    `slack_sdk.WebhookClient <https://slack.dev/python-slack-sdk/webhook/index.html>`_.
    All parameters are optional.

    * ``timeout``: The maximum number of seconds the client will wait to connect
      and receive a response from Slack Incoming Webhook.
    * ``proxy``: Proxy to make the Slack Incoming Webhook call.

If you are configuring the connection via a URI, ensure that all components of the URI are URL-encoded.

Examples
--------

**Snippet for create Connection as URI**:
  .. code-block:: python

    from airflow.models.connection import Connection

    conn = Connection(
        conn_id="slack_default",
        conn_type="slackwebhook",
        password="T00000000/B00000000/XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX",
        extra={
            # Specify extra parameters here
            "timeout": "42",
        },
    )

    # Generate Environment Variable Name
    env_key = f"AIRFLOW_CONN_{conn.conn_id.upper()}"
    print(f"{env_key}='{conn.get_uri()}'")

**Set Slack API Connection as Environment Variable (URI)**
  .. code-block:: bash

     export AIRFLOW_CONN_SLACK_DEFAULT='slackwebhook://:T00000000%2FB00000000%2FXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX@/?timeout=42'
