Offsite backup web hook sending unexpected data

I have started implementing offsite backups on several servers that I administer and send a webhook notification on success. For many of them, it works great. However, on one I don’t get the expected payload sent via webhook, instead I get the JSON below.

FMS v 21.1.4.400
OttoFMS v 4.14.1
macOS 26.2

Thoughts?

{“blocks”:[{“type”:“header”,“text”:{“type”:“plain_text”,“text”:“:white_check_mark: Offsite Backup Succeeded: Daily”,“emoji”:true}},{“type”:“divider”},{“type”:“section”,“text”:{“type”:“mrkdwn”,“text”:“The offsite backup schedule Daily completed successfully on https://my.server.com|my.server.com.”}},{“type”:“section”,“fields”:[{“type”:“mrkdwn”,“text”:“Files Transferred: 3\nTotal Backup Size: 82.08 GB\nTransfer Duration: 3:11:38”}]},{“type”:“context”,“elements”:[{“type”:“mrkdwn”,“text”:“View <https://my.server.com/otto/app/otto-settings/offsite|Offsite Backup Settings> in OttoFMS.”}]}]}

Hey Tim,

That’s the JSON that gets sent for Slack notifications, did you put your webhook URL into the Slack url field?
