Push Channels

TrendRadar supports 10 push channels, and you can choose one or several to receive pushes at the same time based on your habits. You configure each channel by adding the corresponding Secret under Settings > Secrets and variables > Actions in your GitHub repository.

Things to know

Configuring at least one channel is enough to use the push feature
You can configure multiple channels at once, and the system pushes to all configured channels in parallel
The Secret Name must match the name noted in the docs exactly, and it is case-sensitive
Once a Secret is saved you cannot view its original value (a GitHub security mechanism); if you entered it incorrectly, simply update to overwrite it

Channel configuration details

WeCom

Personal WeChat

Feishu

DingTalk

ntfy

Bark

Slack

Custom Webhook

WeCom group bot

A WeCom group bot is the simplest and fastest push channel to set up, ideal for teams already using WeCom.

Tip

The WeCom group bot is the easiest of all push channels to configure, usually done within 2 minutes. Pushed messages support Markdown formatting.

Multi-account push

TrendRadar supports configuring multiple accounts for the same channel, pushing messages to several recipients at once.

How to configure

In the Secret's value, separate multiple URLs or tokens with a semicolon ;:

# 企业微信多群推送
WEWORK_WEBHOOK_URL = https://qyapi.weixin.qq.com/xxx1;https://qyapi.weixin.qq.com/xxx2;https://qyapi.weixin.qq.com/xxx3

# 飞书多群推送
FEISHU_WEBHOOK_URL = https://open.feishu.cn/open-apis/bot/v2/hook/aaa;https://open.feishu.cn/open-apis/bot/v2/hook/bbb

Notes for Telegram multi-account

Telegram requires two Secrets — Token and Chat ID. For multiple accounts, the count and order on both sides must correspond one to one. For example:
TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN = token1;token2;token3
TELEGRAM_CHAT_ID = chatid1;chatid2;chatid3
where token1 corresponds to chatid1, token2 to chatid2, and so on.

Handling empty Token slots for ntfy multi-account

If a particular ntfy account doesn't need a Token (using the official free service), just leave the corresponding position empty. For example, if the second of three topics doesn't need a Token:
NTFY_TOKEN = token1;;token3
The empty space between the two middle semicolons means the second topic uses no authentication.
Multiple topics share the same ntfy server URL (NTFY_SERVER_URL accepts only a single value, semicolon separation is not supported).

Generic Webhook multi-account

The Generic Webhook also supports multi-account: separate multiple URLs with semicolons (GENERIC_WEBHOOK_URL), and each URL can have its own payload template (GENERIC_WEBHOOK_TEMPLATE, separated by semicolons; if only one template is provided, all URLs share it).
For example:
GENERIC_WEBHOOK_URL = https://hook1.example.com;https://hook2.example.com
GENERIC_WEBHOOK_TEMPLATE = {"text":"{content}"};{"message":"{content}"}

By default, each channel supports up to 3 accounts.

Configure via config.yaml

The GitHub Secrets approach described above is designed for GitHub Actions deployments. If you use Docker or local deployment, you can fill in channel credentials directly in the notification.channels section of config/config.yaml:

notification:
  enabled: true
  channels:
    feishu:
      webhook_url: "https://open.feishu.cn/open-apis/bot/v2/hook/your-token"

    telegram:
      bot_token: "123456:ABC-DEF..."
      chat_id: "987654321"

    wework:
      webhook_url: "https://qyapi.weixin.qq.com/cgi-bin/webhook/send?key=xxx"
      msg_type: "markdown"    # markdown=group bot, text=personal WeChat

Environment variables take priority

If both an environment variable (e.g. FEISHU_WEBHOOK_URL) and the corresponding field in config.yaml are set, the environment variable's value takes precedence. This lets you put defaults in config.yaml and flexibly override them per environment via environment variables.

Test your push

Once configured, you can send a test message to verify that all channels are working:

uv run python -m trendradar --test-notification

This command sends a test message to every configured push channel. Channels with empty credentials are skipped.

Troubleshooting push failures

If you don't receive the test message, check the terminal log output. Common issues include: misspelled Webhook URLs, invalid Telegram Bot Tokens, expired email app passwords, etc. The log will show the specific error.
