Trigv Notifications
Account Setup
Section titled “Account Setup”To use this plugin you need a Trigv workspace and an ingest API key.
- Sign in to your Trigv workspace.
- Under workspace settings, generate an ingest API key. It looks like
trgv_AbCdEfGh_0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef. - Decide which channel slug(s) you want alerts delivered to. If you don’t specify one, alerts go to the
generalchannel.
Syntax
Section titled “Syntax”Valid syntax is as follows:
trigvs://{api_key}trigvs://{api_key}/{channel}
Multiple channels can be notified in a single call by separating them with a slash:
trigvs://{api_key}/{channel1}/{channel2}
If you’re running your own self-hosted Trigv ingest gateway, you can point Apprise at it directly, with an optional port:
trigv://{api_key}@{hostname}/{channel}trigvs://{api_key}@{hostname}:{port}/{channel}
trigv:// talks to your hostname over plain HTTP; trigvs:// (the default when no hostname is supplied) always uses HTTPS.
Parameter Breakdown
Section titled “Parameter Breakdown”| Variable | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
| api_key | Yes | Your Trigv workspace ingest API key. |
| channel | No | One or more channel slugs to deliver to (separate multiple channels with a / in the URL path). Defaults to general when none is supplied. |
| to | No | A comma-separated list of additional channel slugs to notify, supplied as a ?to= query argument. |
| url | No | A supplemental URL to attach to the alert (e.g. a link to a dashboard or run). |
| image_url | No | A publicly reachable image URL to display alongside the alert. |
| urgency | No | Force the delivery urgency to either standard or time_sensitive. When omitted, failures are automatically escalated to time_sensitive. |
| event_type | No | A free-form event type label attached to the alert (e.g. backup.failed). |
| priority | No | A Pushover-style priority. Any value of 1 or higher is treated the same as ?urgency=time_sensitive. |
Global Parameters
Section titled “Global Parameters”| Variable | Description |
|---|---|
| overflow | This parameter can be set to either split, truncate, or upstream. This determines how Apprise delivers the message you pass it. By default this is set to upstream 👉 upstream: Do nothing at all; pass the message exactly as you received it to the service.👉 truncate: Ensure that the message will fit within the service’s documented upstream message limit. If more information was passed then the defined limit, the overhead information is truncated.👉 split: similar to truncate except if the message doesn’t fit within the service’s documented upstream message limit, it is split into smaller chunks and they are all delivered sequentially there-after. |
| format | This parameter can be set to either text, html, or markdown. Some services support the ability to post content by several different means. The default of this varies (it can be one of the 3 mentioned at any time depending on which service you choose). You can optionally force this setting to stray from the defaults if you wish. If the service doesn’t support different types of transmission formats, then this field is ignored. |
| verify | External requests made to secure locations (such as through the use of https) will have certificates associated with them. By default, Apprise will verify that these certificates are valid; if they are not then no notification will be sent to the source. In some occasions, a user might not have a certificate authority to verify the key against or they trust the source; in this case you will want to set this flag to no. By default it is set to yes. |
| redirect | By default, Apprise will follow HTTP redirects (3xx responses) issued by the remote server, matching the behaviour of the underlying requests library. If you want to prevent custom headers and credentials from being forwarded to destinations that differ from the original URL, set this to no. By default it is set to yes. |
| cto | This stands for Socket Connect Timeout. This is the number of seconds Requests will wait for your client to establish a connection to a remote machine (corresponding to the connect()) call on the socket. The default value is 4.0 seconds. |
| rto | This stands for Socket Read Timeout. This is the number of seconds the client will wait for the server to send a response. The default value is 4.0 seconds. |
| emojis | Enable Emoji support (such as providing :+1: would translate to 👍). By default this is set to no. Note: Depending on server side settings, the administrator has the power to disable emoji support at a global level; but default this is not the case. |
| tz | Identify the IANA Time Zone Database you wish to operate as. By default this is detected based on the configuration the server hosting Apprise is running on. You can set this to things like America/Toronto, or any other properly formated Timezone describing your area. |
| retry | The number of additional delivery attempts to make after the first failure before giving up. Accepts an integer in the range 0 to 10. The default is 0 (no retries — a single attempt is made). When combined with wait, Apprise pauses the specified number of seconds between each attempt. |
| wait | The number of seconds to pause between retry attempts. Accepts a decimal value in the range 0.0 to 20.0; integer values are promoted to float automatically. The default is 0.5. This value is only meaningful when retry is greater than zero — a service with retry=0 makes exactly one attempt regardless of the wait value. |
| optional | When set to yes, a delivery failure for this service is silently absorbed. The overall notify() call still returns True even if this endpoint was unreachable, provided that every required (non-optional) service in the same batch succeeded. Setting this flag does not skip delivery or bypass retry logic — all configured retry attempts are still made before the failure is absorbed. By default this is set to no, meaning every failure is propagated to the caller. |
Examples
Section titled “Examples”Send a simple alert to the default channel:
apprise -vv -t "Cron" -b "Backup failed" \ "trigvs://trgv_AbCdEfGh_0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef"Send to a specific channel with a supplemental link:
apprise -vv -t "Deploy complete" -b "v2.4.1 shipped to prod" \ "trigvs://trgv_AbCdEfGh_0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef/deploys/?url=https://ci.example.com/runs/42"Notify multiple channels at once:
apprise -vv -t "Disk almost full" -b "/var is at 95%" \ "trigvs://trgv_AbCdEfGh_0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef/ops/oncall"Force time-sensitive delivery:
apprise -vv -t "Disk almost full" -b "/var is at 95%" \ "trigvs://trgv_AbCdEfGh_0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef/?urgency=time_sensitive"Talk to a self-hosted ingest gateway on a custom port instead of api.trigv.com:
apprise -vv -t "Test" -b "Hello from a local gateway" \ "trigv://trgv_AbCdEfGh_0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef@trigv.internal.example.com:8080/general" Questions or Feedback?
