How do you handle fail notifications?

#1

Hi,

I am new to Duplicacy. I am using a docker container and have setup the backup jobs. I cannot create an e-mail notification in the web guy, just enter an URL. So the recommended way seems to be to use health checks.io. So I did that. Just to see that on failures Duplicacy sends a message to the hc endpoint but since it is not using the /fail endpoint and HC ignores the “result:error” part of the json message, hc still claims all is fine and does not send out notifications. I seem to be missing something. But what?

Regards
JP

Emails to health-check appear to cover both failures, successes, and lacks of execution

Backup task vs job schedule: one of them expect URLs, another — email configuration.

So you are sending the job schedule mails to healtchecks.io and have it process failures? Can you share your healthchecks.io config for that?
