I am trying to use websocat to use with notify_push to subscribe to events,

run this command websocat <WEBSOCKET_URL>, your cursor moves to next line.
Just type username and then press enter, then type the password/app-password and then enter
the websocket returns err: Invalid credentials

The websocket should successfully connect and return authenticated.

When we perform above steps in shell and check the webserver logs, this is what I get --

admin\x0A [05/Nov/2025:18:51:39 +0530] "GET /index.php/apps/notify_push/uid HTTP/1.1" 401 24 "-" "-"

that \x0A is getting added to admin, I think it's \n getting added

but in case of connecting via test_client

admin [05/Nov/2025:18:51:39 +0530] "GET /index.php/apps/notify_push/uid HTTP/1.1" 200 5 "-" "-"

Or can just use test_client for getting websocket messages
