Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/binwiederhier/ntfy/issues/1617

🐞 Describe the bug
Ntfy documentation identifies the use of setting X-Tags which does not appear to work. However setting tags in the JSON payload does work.

Would advise to either support X-Tags as documented or just drop it from documentation since the payload method works fine too. All other X-Header-Options appear to be correctly honored.

note: I did not test Tags on it's own.

Apprise workaround in place works fine using tags in payload

Hi @caronc , thank you for Apprise!

What env are you testing this against? I would be highly surprised if this didn't work.

I ma on my phone tested it and it seems to work just fine:

Issue originated from https://github.com/caronc/apprise/issues/1520. Adding tags into the payload fixed it (i left X-Tags untouched).

I'm not sure... perhaps the @kimimaru4000 can shed some light? In screenshots he/she provided, the warning tag was what he used as an example was missing. Maybe i fixed a bug that wasn't a bug? 🙂

This just worked fine for me on ntfy.sh

$ curl -H "X-Tags: warning,tag2" -d "test message" https://ntfy.sh/tag-test
{"id":"oVJhD2W3nLRO","time":1771509429,"expires":1771552629,"event":"message","topic":"tag-test","message":"test message","tags":["warning","tag2"]}

From what I see in my notification Python script, the visual tags are used in the "Tags" header, as opposed to "X-Tags". Perhaps this is where the confusion lies?

I will roll back my change if not needed (or if it doesn't hurt to double down on the entry in the payload as well i can leave it; it may be sloppy the way it is now. Perhaps issue is with @kimimaru4000's specific environment/configuration?
