                 Key: AIRFLOW-2217
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AIRFLOW-2217
             Project: Apache Airflow
          Issue Type: New Feature

            Assignee: Daniel van der Ende


Slack offers several ways to interact with it. Airflow currently has support for the full Slack API with the [Slack hook|https://github.com/apache/incubator-airflow/blob/master/airflow/hooks/slack_hook.py] This, however, can be a bit heavy-handed for simple posting of messages. Slack also offers the possibility of using an [Incoming webhook|https://api.slack.com/incoming-webhooks]

It would be nice to have a hook in Airflow to use the incoming webhook API offered by Slack. A lot of use cases for integrating Slack in Airflow are oriented on posting error or success messages to a Slack channel based on the outcome of a task instance. The Webhook API is perfect for this.
