Push Notification
Push Notification
Section titled “Push Notification”Deliver a notification to your phone — with the browser closed and no tab focused. This is the sink that completes the watcher story: an Element Change Trigger detects a change, Digest batches it, and this delivers it to a device.
What it does
Section titled “What it does”Sends a push notification via ntfy or Pushover, with a title, priority, and a click-through URL so the notification can open the page it’s about. Pick the provider and its fields appear.
Providers
Section titled “Providers”| Provider | Why | Auth |
|---|---|---|
| ntfy | Open source, self-hostable, works with no account — just publish to a topic. The lowest-friction path. | None for public topics; a Bearer token for a protected server. |
| Pushover | A polished app with a one-off purchase, for reliability over self-hosting. | An application token + your user key. |
Inputs and settings
Section titled “Inputs and settings”| Setting | Notes |
|---|---|
| Topic | The topic to publish to. Anyone who knows it can read it — pick something unguessable. |
| Message / Title | The notification body and title. |
| Priority | Min, Low, Default, High, or Max. |
| Tags | Emoji shortcodes (e.g. warning, tada) render as icons. |
| Click URL | Open this URL when the notification is tapped. |
| Server | Defaults to https://ntfy.sh; set your self-hosted URL for a private instance. |
Pushover
Section titled “Pushover”| Setting | Notes |
|---|---|
| Message / Title | The notification body and title. |
| Priority | Lowest, Low, Normal, or High. |
| Click URL / Click URL title | A URL to include, and its label. |
Dependencies and credentials
Section titled “Dependencies and credentials”- ntfy (public topic): no credential needed — leave it empty. For an access-controlled server, use a Bearer Token credential.
- Pushover: create an application at pushover.net for the application token, and copy your user key from your dashboard. Store both as a Basic Auth credential:
- Username → the Pushover application token
- Password → your Pushover user key
- Tokens are stored in your credential vault and never pass through awflow’s backend.
Web and extension builds
Section titled “Web and extension builds”This node is extension-only. Self-hosted ntfy servers are often on localhost or a LAN address — reachable through the extension’s host permissions, but not from the web build.
Troubleshooting
Section titled “Troubleshooting”- ntfy notification never arrives — subscribe to the exact same topic in the ntfy app, and confirm the Server matches (default
https://ntfy.sh). - Pushover
user key is invalid— check the credential: Username must be the application token, Password your user key (a common mix-up). - Click URL doesn’t open — provide an absolute
https://URL.
