Help? So what I’m trying to do is get n8n to send my phone a notification that tells me there’s new stories to read every time Miniflux does a pull.

I feel like this should be easy, but it’s not. I initially had it just telling me every half hour, but that felt like a dirty workaround. Should I be looking at webhook? Or am I thinking about this wrong?

    How would I get the timing right? It’s matching the timing where I’m falling over

      You could just poll it every few minutes via a cronjob and only send a notification if the numbers have increased.

      Personally I use miniflux too in docker but I dont have a need for notifications.

        Right now it’s not in my muscle memory, so I need a prompt to keep me checking.
