Apprise, the open-source notification tool that allows applications, scripts, and monitoring systems to send alerts through a unified interface, has released version 2.1.
The update adds 12 new integrations, including GitHub, Better Stack, incident.io, Squadcast, ilert, GoAlert, Gorush, Zoho Cliq, Zalo, OneBot (QQ), LFG Alarm, and AMQP 0.9.1/1.0 support, expanding the project’s supported plugin count to 170.
The new GitHub integration supports notifications through issues, discussions, and pull requests, while Better Stack, incident.io, Squadcast, and ilert extend Apprise’s options for monitoring and incident management. AMQP support also provides another way to integrate notifications with message-based infrastructure.
Apart from the new services, Apprise 2.1 improves incident handling by allowing existing PagerDuty, PagerTree, and SIGNL4 integrations to resolve alerts instead of only creating them.
Security-related fixes are also included. The update improves masking of sensitive information in notification URLs, preventing Matrix access tokens, SMPP passwords, and Twilio API keys from appearing in privacy-safe URL representations.
Configuration handling has been improved as well. YAML configuration files now preserve notification URL tags. Additional fixes ensure encoded URL paths and service-specific parameters are retained correctly.
On the messaging side, several email-related issues have been addressed, including incorrect handling of reply addresses, recipient display names, and CC/BCC recipients. Matrix also receives fixes for encrypted attachments and unnecessary publication of one-time keys.
Other changes include improved notification retry behavior to avoid resending message segments already accepted, support for semicolon-separated notification URLs, and the ability to disable Discord emoji overrides.
The release also improves HTML-to-text conversion by preserving line breaks and indentation in preformatted text blocks, along with refinements to Python type hints.
Finally, Amazon Chime support has been removed because the service has been discontinued.
