Zabbix Slack

Posted on by admin



Infrastructure / Zabbix It’s surprisingly easy to setup Zabbix to send notifications to Slack including customizing which notifications go to which Slack channels and what to include on the Slack message. There is official documentation for Zabbix 4.4 available here. We have a local Zabbix server (working), we have a remote Zabbix active Proxy with PSK encrypted connection (says its working), that remote server is running Ubuntu and it has an agent on it that i believe is looking at itself and we can see that in the Zabbix server console as we added it (so we have a Proxy thats checking in under proxies and that host on the proxy also checking in to. Make sure you create an API token for slack by creating a Slack App, then using it’s Verification Token. Hopefully in the future I revisit this and make use of the Client ID, Client Secret, Signing Secret configuration. So to provide that file we need to create the following in your zabbix configuration directory ex. / ext / zabbix / slack.

  1. Zabbix Https
  2. Zabbix Slack Invalid Payload
  3. Zabbix Sap
  4. Zabbix Slack.sh
  5. Zabbix Slack Integration

Recently Slack has gained a lot of usage, requiring Operations teams to try and integrate Zabbix Alerting with their Slack Installation, here’s how to do so.

You will need to get your Slack Post URL, fill that value in the following script.

slack_post_url,
'channel':'%s'%sys.argv[1],
'text':'```Status: %sn%s```'%(sys.argv[2],sys.argv[3]),
)
