AWX: Mattermost: Timeout Error

Hello again!

Today i try to set an notification via Rocketchat again:
Im at an wokflow to update ubuntu clients and the last step was to get which one needs an reboot.
This part is done and then i thought it would bet better to sent the hosts via rocketchat - i aleready created an user for awx in RC and an channel and an webhook.
I have normal notivcation aleready configured for RC, when an Workflow needs apporoval for example.
My playbook:

---
- name: Check pending reboots on Ubuntu hosts using hostname command
  hosts: all
  gather_facts: yes
  tasks:

    - name: Check if /var/run/reboot-required exists
      ansible.builtin.stat:
        path: /var/run/reboot-required
      register: reboot_file
      no_log: true

    - name: Stop play if /var/run/reboot-required does not exist
      ansible.builtin.meta: end_host
      when: not reboot_file.stat.exists
      no_log: true

    - name: Check reboot
      ansible.builtin.shell: "cat /var/run/reboot-required"
      register: pending_reboot
      no_log: true

    - name: Stop play for hosts without pending reboot
      ansible.builtin.meta: end_host
      when: pending_reboot.stdout is not defined or pending_reboot.stdout | length == 0
      no_log: true

    - name: Retrieve the hostname from the client
      ansible.builtin.command: hostname
      register: client_hostname
      changed_when: false
      tags: check_reboot
      no_log: true

    - name: Debug output for hosts with pending reboots
      ansible.builtin.debug:
        msg: >
          Host {{ client_hostname.stdout }} has a pending reboot.

    - name: send hosts with pending reboot via rocketchat
      community.general.rocketchat:
        domain:  chat.gruen.net
        token: 'my/supersecuretoken'
        msg: 'Host {{ client_hostname.stdout }} has a pending reboot.'
        channel: '#AWX_Bot_Channel'
        username: 'AWX_Bot'
        #icon_url: http://www.example.com/some-image-file.png
        #link_names: 0
      delegate_to: localhost

And i get for this task:

}

I can sent messages directly from the host from the error - there is an default test message you can copy from the RC webhoock config for debug:

Since were gonna move to Mattermost i tried to send something there, but its the same: curl commands function- notification test und the gui does too, but not this task:


    - name: Send notification message via Mattermost all options
      community.general.mattermost:
        url: https://grommunio.gruen.net/chat
        api_key: 'jp4qm1osubgojpcaokapu3m5na'
        text: '{{ client_hostname.stdout }} completed'
        #channel: notifications
        username: 'awx'
        #icon_url: http://www.example.com/some-image-file.png
        priority: important

I got Rocketchat going:
less was more:

    - name: send hosts with pending reboot via rocketchat
      community.general.rocketchat:
        domain:  chat.gruen.net
        token: 'mykey'
        msg: 'Host {{ client_hostname.stdout }} has a pending reboot.'
        #channel: '#AWX_Bot_Channel'
        #username: 'AWX_Bot'
        #icon_url: http://www.example.com/some-image-file.png
        #link_names: 0
        validate_certs: false
      #delegate_to: localhost

but still Mattermost i cannot not use an username because it will use an default user if no user is set.

    - name: Send notification message via Mattermost all options
      community.general.mattermost:
        url: https://grommunio.gruen.net/chat
