## Documentation

# Deploy and Host Apprise notification gateway

Route alerts from jobs and applications to more than one hundred notification services through a small authenticated API. Saved Apprise configurations and attachments survive redeploys on a Railway volume.

## About Hosting Apprise notification gateway

This template runs Apprise API 1.5.1 privately and exposes only a Caddy gateway protected by generated Basic Auth. The public health route checks Apprise storage readiness without exposing the notification API.

## Why Deploy Apprise notification gateway on Railway

Railway supplies private networking, generated credentials, TLS, and durable storage, so applications can share one notification configuration without embedding every downstream service URL in every caller.

## Common Use Cases

- Route cron, backup, and deployment alerts to chat, email, or push services.
- Keep notification provider URLs in one persistent service.
- Give internal applications one authenticated notification endpoint.

## Dependencies for Apprise notification gateway Hosting

- A notification provider supported by Apprise.
- A Railway volume for saved configurations and attachments.
