Web check return page

[nicolasg]

Hi All,

I have created a Web check scenario and step that successfully checks the availability of a page and triggers an alerts if something is wrong.

I would like to know if there is any way I can include in the mail alert that is sent the content of the return page in case the scenario is not successful ?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Perhaps you could describe the url as a set of macros?

Hi David,

Thanks for the reply. I don't really understand what do you mean and how can you do that..

I want to sent the page content in case of a trigger, can this be done using macros ?

Hi,
I assume you are, or have been, configuring actions to handle this. In the default action configuration you'll see that default builtin macros are referenced to refer to specific zabbix variables. You can also add your own mcros to deine other variables that you want to use...

Possibly an even better option would be to define the url(s) that concern you in the trigger comment. Then when you configure your action refer to {TRIGGER.URL} in order to pass the URL into the message.

For more details refer to the zabbix manual.

Hi Dave,

My current trigger to check if the Web check fails is {test_web1:web.test.fail[Web1_HTTP_Check_Scenario].
last(0)}#0 and it is working fine.

The Default message configure in all my actions is :
"""
{TRIGGER.NAME}: {TRIGGER.STATUS}
Last value: {ITEM.LASTVALUE}

{TRIGGER.URL}
"""

but for some reason I never get any values for {TRIGGER.URL}.. are you saying that the TRIGGER.URL will return the page content or I have to define my own MACRO ?

Hi,
That's because you haven't configurd {TRIGGER.URL}. If you go to the configured trigger you'll see a URL dialogue in the bottom half of the screen. Set it there and it should work.

I got your point thanks, I set the URL and now I get TRIGGER.URL value in the notifications.

However this is not what I want, I need the page content to be included in the email and not the url ... is this possible ?

Hi,
I've not tried that but I believe that if you search the forum you should find discussion of that subject.

Yeah I found discussions but either the solution was to user user-parameters scrips or there were no answers and that's why I created a new thread...

Anyway, I appreciate your help.
