[It broke]: value in notificationConnectors.json is null for ntfy notifications

[nickconway]

What is broken?

After restarting the docker container, the api fails to start because of a null value in notificationConnectors.json.

Additional stuff

I think the value throwing the error is auth based on this line in NotificationManagerJsonConverter.cs return new Ntfy(this._clone, jo.GetValue("endpoint")!.Value<string>()!, jo.GetValue("auth")!.Value<string>()!);

auth doesn't seem to ever get written to the file.

My notificationConnectors.json: [{"notificationConnectorType":2,"endpoint":"https://ntfy.conway.dev"}]

Delete the notification connector file or set auth manually as a string. Fixed it for the future
