Summary

Creates a notification on an Unraid server through its GraphQL API and returns the created notification record. Requires at least the Control level.

Inputs

  • Title (required) — Notification title.
  • Subject (required) — Notification subject line.
  • Description — Body text. Always sent, as an empty string if left blank.
  • Importance — Info (default), Warning, or Alert.
  • Link — Optional URL to attach. Only included in the request if non-empty.
  • Maximum Control Level — Caps what the node may do (credential default, Read, Control, Full). It can only narrow the credential's limit. Create needs Control or higher, so Read blocks it with an error.

Output shape

One item per input item. Its JSON is the created notification, with fields id, title, subject, description, importance, link, type, timestamp and formattedTimestamp.

If the API returns no createNotification data, the item is an empty object. If the control level is too low or the API errors, the node throws. With Continue On Fail enabled, it outputs {error: message} instead.

Examples

Example 1: Alert the Unraid dashboard when a workflow detects a failed backup.

Title 'Backup', Subject 'Backup failed', Description from an expression, Importance Alert, Link to the job log URL.

Example 2: Post an informational message after a successful job.

Title and Subject set to fixed text, Importance Info, Description and Link left blank.
