Settings -> Notifications: Telegram and Discord/webhook alerts.

Telegram

  • Bot token, issued by @BotFather.
  • Admin chat id, the account the bot messages.

Both come from Telegram rather than from Kustos, and getting them is an eight-step errand involving two different bots. Step by step, with what to do when nothing arrives →

Approving a /request in Telegram adds it straight to Sonarr/Radarr — the approval is a real action, not an acknowledgement.

Discord / webhook

A webhook URL per channel.

What both share

  • The instance name from General appears on every message, so several Kustos installs posting to one channel stay tellable apart.
  • Secrets are masked on read. A saved token comes back as a masked value; if you save the form without touching it, the masked value means "unchanged" and the real token is kept. This is why you cannot read a token back out of the UI once saved — that is deliberate.
