Hi Quentin — thanks for the awesome project! I’ve run into an issue where Discord notifications are not being sent, even though:

The IP update works correctly (confirmed via logs and Cloudflare)
The Discord webhook works when tested manually via curl
The config.json includes a valid notifications.discord.webhook_url entry
Logging is set to "debug" but no Discord-related logs appear
I’ve tried both config file and environment variable (NOTIFICATION_DISCORD_WEBHOOK_URL) approaches
I’m using the latest image (built on 2024-12-24T09:20:36.130Z, commit 78f3061)

Here’s a redacted version of my config:

{
  "settings": [
    {
      "provider": "cloudflare",
      "domain": "home.silvanbusuttil.com",
      "ip_version": "ipv4",
      "ttl": 300,
      "proxied": false,
      "token": "REDACTED",
      "zone_identifier": "REDACTED",
      "notifications": {
        "discord": {
          "webhook_url": "https://discord.com/api/webhooks/REDACTED"
        }
      }
    }
  ],
  "logger": {
    "level": "debug"
  }
}


Despite successful updates, I never see any log lines mentioning Discord or notifications, and nothing is sent to the channel.

Any ideas on what might be going wrong? Happy to test a patch or provide more logs if helpful.

Thanks again!
