The emoji in the title comes from the tags. warning corresponds to the yellow caution triangle. See the docs here: https://docs.ntfy.sh/publish/#tags-emojis

You can tag messages with emojis and other relevant strings:

Emojis: If a tag matches an emoji short code, it'll be converted to an emoji and prepended to title or message.

Other tags: If a tag doesn't match, it will be listed below the notification.

@wunter8 commented on GitHub (Jul 20, 2025): The emoji in the title comes from the `tags`. `warning` corresponds to the yellow caution triangle.
