Has anyone tried to configure authelia or authentik with a local nfty server, do you know any way to protect the web interface?

I don't know what swag is, I currently use authelia with nginx proxy manager and it is impossible to use it with a local ntfy server, I have tried a thousand ways and ntfy https://ntfy.sh/ is not viable without a dashbord web interface protected by a user and pass

And how do you want to send alerts with authelia in front?

Btw are you aware of authentication within ntfy? https://reddit.com/r/selfhosted/s/1IoWDROCD5

So I ask is there any way to password protect the ntfy dashboard on the server?

Sorry my bad, but why does it matter as long as you secure any channel?

in fact i run ntfy server on docker on a vps tied with a cronjob but it scares me to think that anyone can manipulate and see my complete dashboard.

Then use it through a VPN (e.g. WireGuard), that's how I do it. Only expose services to the internet if you really have to.

I have it also in a vpn wireguard and I do portforwarding from a local machine using a vps bridge but the point is not that the point is that lan or wan should have an authentication panel is basic in any web application I do not understand how ntfy has not done that yet.

you have to set the setting to make it reverse proxy aware. swag is a nginx based reverse proxy with a lot of builtin configs for various services and customizations.

if you really don't want anyone to access your topics, you can set default permissions to none and then manually allow per topic for each user (selfhosted ntfy)
