Yes but at the same time, the conn_type can be https, which is wrong. That's why I was aiming for changing this at the parsing level

>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: hooks
>    Affects Versions: 1.10.5
>            Reporter: Mickael V
>            Priority: Minor
>             Fix For: 1.10.6

>   Original Estimate: 24h

> There is an inconsistence in the usage of *scheme* and *schema* when using an HTTP connection.
> If the connection is made through the UI or imported through config files (or to sum up, if it's kept in the Airflow DB), the *schema* represents the *scheme* ({{http}}, {{https}}).
> But if the connection is parsed from a URI (for example if it's overloaded through an environment variable), the {{schema}} is the {{path}} or the URI.
> This is wrong because then the {{HttpHook}} uses the {{schema}} to prefix the {{base_url}}. It is particularly visible when using https, which gets transformed to default http. As a result the URLs are built with HTTP instead of HTTPS.
>  
> There are two possibilities that I see to fix this :
>  * At the {{Connection}} level, in {{parse_from_uri()}}, implement a special treatment for http connection to have {{conn_type='http'}} and {{schema=scheme}}
>  * At the {{HttpHook}} level, in {{get_conn}}, look up {{conn_type}} to get the real {{scheme}}.
>  
> I propose using the first solution, as it is more consistent with what happens when a connection is added through other ways (UI and config files).
