I always use xmpp to send notifications via webhook. Now I would like to test matrix. I installed the integration and it works to send text messages. Unfortunately I can't send pictures (png). what am I doing wrong?

yes, I did that.

I can send a jpg in this folder. But no png.

I have solved the problem. The png files had root as owner. chown solved the problem.

This never bothered xmpp. matrix seems to be very sensitive...

@boebbele
Glad you solved it.

I learned there was a homeassistant matrix integration by reading your post and tried it bit could not make it work, I always have an authentication error.

Did you use the core integration or did you use one from hacs?
Also do you use matrix.org or a custom matrix server?

I use the core Integration (yaml). I'm on tchncs.de
