+### Basic authentication
+
+If Signal Messenger is running behind a proxy that requires basic authentication, you need to add `auth` to your configuration and specify the username and password.
+
+```yaml
+# Basic authentication example for Signal Messenger
+notify:
+  - name: signal
+    platform: signal_messenger
+    url: "http://127.0.0.1:8080"
+    auth:
+      username: "BASIC_AUTH_USERNAME" # the username to be used for Basic Auth
