## Failed to enable web push notifications
178
+
179
+
### Option 1: You are using Pi-hole
180
+
181
+
When using Pi-hole, you need to whitelist the proper domains in order for the queries to not be intercepted and blocked by Pi-hole.
182
+
If you are using a chromium based browser (eg: Chrome, Brave, Edge...), the domain you need to whitelist is `fcm.googleapis.com`
183
+
If you are using Firefox, the domain you need to whitelist is `push.services.mozilla.com`
184
+
185
+
1. Log into your Pi-hole through the admin interface, then click on Domains situated under GROUP MANAGEMENT.
186
+
2. Add the domain corresponding to your browser in the `Domain to be added` field and then click on Add to allowed domains.
187
+
3. Now in order for those changes to be used you need to flush your current dns cache.
188
+
4. You can do so by using this command line in your Pi-hole terminal:
189
+
```bash
190
+
pihole restartdns
191
+
```
192
+
If this command fails (which is unlikely), use this equivalent:
193
+
```bash
194
+
pihole -f && pihole restartdns
195
+
```
196
+
5. Then restart your Seerr instance and try to enable the web push notifications again.
197
+
198
+
199
+
### Option 2: You are using Brave browser
200
+
201
+
Brave is a "De-Googled" browser. So by default or if you refused a prompt in the past, it cuts the access to the FCM (Firebase Cloud Messaging) service, which is mandatory for the web push notifications on Chromium based browsers.
202
+
203
+
1. Open Brave and paste this address in the url bar: `brave://settings/privacy`
204
+
2. Look for the option: "Use Google services for push messaging"
205
+
3. Activate this option
206
+
4. Relaunch Brave completely
207
+
5. You should now see the notifications prompt appearing instead of an error message.
