Station can post to an ntfy topic each time it finishes storing an upload. Storage can fail at that point too, so a message isn’t proof of success. Uploads rejected earlier, for example by a checksum mismatch, send nothing. A failed notification never blocks Station.
Scout has separate notification settings that fire when an upload succeeds from Scout’s side. See Scout notifications. Use either or both.

​
Set up

1

Open the dialog

In Station, click Configure ntfy.
2

Enter your server and topic

  • ntfy Server URL: for example https://ntfy.sh or your own server.
  • Topic: for example backups.
3

Test and save

Click Test to send a sample message, then Save.
If your ntfy server uses a private CA, add it under Trusted certificates.

​
Only notify for some uploads

Leave these empty to be notified about every upload. Fill any of them to only notify when the upload matches all filled fields:

​
Message template

The default message is:
Write your own in Message Template using these placeholders. Defaults restores the default. Messages are sent with the header X-Relay-Event: upload-received.

​
Unusual size alerts

When an archive’s size is far from the job’s usual size, Station also sends a separate high-priority alert with the reason. It uses the header X-Relay-Event: unusual-upload, follows the same match fields, and ignores the message template. See Unusual sizes.
