Hi I need some with using webhooks with Authentik. I am setting up notification on Authentik with generic webhook option and using this command to send the message https://ntfy.sh/mytopic/publish?auth=<TOKEN> but it doesn't work .

Does NTFY webhooks work with Authentik even?

Is Authentik sending a GET request or a POST request? The .../publish URL expects a GET request.

Also, does it work if you (temporarily) disable auth? If so, it's a problem with your auth query param. The docs describe how to generate it with double base64 encoding

@wunter8
The auth parameter that I am using is indeed double base64 encoded. I have tried to send the /publish command using curl (or straight away typing it in browser )and get the notification on my device.
So doesn't looks like that auth is the issue here.
Secondly, looks like authentik sends a POST request

Worked by sending POST command directly to NTFY server topic, without the /publish paramter. So, for Authentik, command should be https://ntfy.sh/topic?auth=<token>
