Daily Homelab Status Brief to Discord (Beszel, Uptime Kuma, Synology)

Get a daily “homelab health” brief in Discord—automatically

This n8n workflow checks Beszel system status, monitors availability from an Uptime Kuma status page, and verifies Synology Active Backup results—then posts one clean, formatted homelab health message to your Discord channel via webhook.

What this workflow does

• Runs daily at 7:00 AM (or on manual trigger) using configured URLs, status page slug, backup task IDs, and timezone.
• Pulls Beszel status: logs in to Beszel, fetches the systems list, summarizes each system’s status and uptime, and flags any recent reboots.
• Checks Uptime Kuma: reads a public status page and its heartbeat data, counts how many monitors are up, and lists monitors that are down/maintenance or have low 24-hour uptime.
• Validates Synology backups: logs in to Synology DSM and queries Synology Active Backup for Business for the latest backup version of each configured task.
• Posts a single Discord-ready summary that combines Beszel + Uptime Kuma + Synology results, and marks any unreachable section as unavailable.
• Sends the brief to Discord through a webhook, then logs out of Synology.

Use cases

• Operators running a mixed homelab stack who want daily visibility without opening dashboards.
• Automation engineers keeping uptime and backup confidence reports consistently delivered to a team channel.
• SaaS operators and homelab admins who want a single “status brief” message for quick triage.

Technical details

• Integrations: Beszel, Uptime Kuma, Synology DSM (Synology Active Backup for Business), and Discord.
• Auth methods: Beszel HTTP Custom Auth (username/password to Beszel auth endpoint) and Synology HTTP Custom Auth (DSM account/password for SYNO.API.Auth login).
• n8n nodes used: set, code, discord, sticky note, http request, and manual trigger.

Ideal if you’re looking for a practical Discord homelab status automation that ties together Beszel, Uptime Kuma, and Synology backups into one daily workflow.
