Zabbix HTTP Request - How can I do this.

[Axilla]

So, I have a url which outputs a random # based on the total number of calls our system is currently handeling.

http://192.168.*.*/ServerSides.cfc?Method=CurrentCalls

If I visit that page I see in the window for example 39

how can I take that data and get it into zabbix?

here is the source data for the output page

<wddxPacket version='1.0'><header/><data><string>39</string></data></wddxPacket>

ok, so I now have a cronjob which reads the data from the website and dumps it to a data file on the zabbix server.

How can I use userparams to get that data into zabbix.

Alright so I got this working using UserParameters and curl thanks to help from the guys on IRC. Using Curl + sed gets rid of the need to dump the data to a file first... Much easier and more reliable.. Also doesn't need a cronjob then and can be graphed at a lower interval then 1 minute. Hopefully this helps someone in the future.

UserParameter=Current.Calls,curl http://192.168.*.*/ServerSide/Server...d=CurrentCalls | sed -e 's/<[^>]*>//g'
