Sonarr — built-in ntfy connection

Sonarr → Settings → Connect → ntfy.sh (topic: aloi-homelab-arr)

Sonarr's native ntfy integration. Full event set wired: Grab, Import, Upgrade, File deleted, Manual interaction required, Application update, Health issue. No script in between — Sonarr POSTs directly to ntfy.sh on each event.

· Grab — release picked up from an indexer
· Import — file imported into the library
· Upgrade — quality upgrade replaced an existing file
· File deleted — episode removed
· Manual interaction required — Sonarr needs human help
· Application update — Sonarr itself updated
· Health issue — indexer offline, missing root folder, etc.

Radarr — built-in ntfy connection

Radarr → Settings → Connect → ntfy.sh (topic: aloi-homelab-arr)

Same shape and event coverage as Sonarr's connection — movie equivalents (Grab, Import, Upgrade, Movie added/deleted, Manual interaction, App update, Health). Lives alongside Sonarr in the *arr stack.

How priorities are assigned

Sonarr/Radarr publish at the topic default (3) for normal events. The connection config can promote specific events (Manual interaction, Health issue) to higher priority — keep it minimal so the topic stays mostly silent on your lock screen.

Example payloads

What an alert on this topic actually looks like on a phone.

Episode Imported

P3 · default

Show.Name.S01E04.1080p.WEB-DL.x264-GROUP
→ /tv/Show Name/Season 01/

Default-priority chatter — every successful import lands here. The volume is the point: silence means imports stopped working.

Manual interaction required

P4 · high warning

Sonarr can't decide what to do with a release. Open Sonarr → Activity → Queue.

Higher priority because nothing happens until you click. Rare.

Notes

Topic is intentionally low-stakes — subscribe with 'low' or 'min' priority on your phone so it doesn't fight for attention with vaspian-alerts.
If a specific event becomes noisy (e.g. 'Grab' firing 30×/day during a backfill), untick it in the connection config instead of muting the whole topic.
