Solutions

1. Pass an https:// URL for the delivery channel, e.g. watchlist.py config delivery https://example.com/webhook.
2. Use an empty value to clear the delivery channel if you do not want delivery configured.

When it happens

Trigger: Fires when the user sets the watchlist delivery_channel config key to a value that is not an https:// URL. Plain http:// URLs, bare hostnames, webhook paths without scheme, or empty strings all fail this validation.

Common situations: See trigger scenarios.
