Learning apache airflow and I'm trying to create a new connection type the correct way, but it still doesn't show up. I am working within a virtual environment on WSL2 through VS Code, and my terminal looks like this (sandbox) nick@GameCube:~$

This is what my pip list within the venv shows

But these are my only conn types within the airflow UI (I am running airflow webserver within the venv too)

You can see that all the other installed conn types show up, but http doesn't for some reason. Why does this happen? I have tried restarting vscode, killing the webserver process and restarting it, etc but it still doesn't show!

The apache-airflow-providers-http==4.0.0 is not compatible with apache-airflow==2.1.0

To solve your issue you need to downgrade http provider to a version compatible with Airflow 2.1.0

Noting that Http provider is installed by default with Airflow if you need to bump its version make sure you set it to compatible version.

In larger context I suggest to install Airflow from constraints as suggested in the docs. This will prevent case of unstable environment as Airflow brings many dependencies and it guarantees a working environment of Airflow. You can upgrade providers to newer versions but you will need to take a closer look on each upgrade. You can read about it in this doc: Installing/upgrading/downgrading providers separately from Airflow core.
