JSON Parsing

[jpmorgan29]

Hi guys,

I have a certain problem with showing my desired output as an Item.

I have a UPS that shows data in JSON (localhost:8888/0/json) and I'd like to add some values as an item.


I updated my Zabbix to 3.4 because I saw the preprocessing JSON path.

Yet when I try to create an item and let's say I'd like to show the key value:




I'm clearly stuck at this and can't seem to get a result

Just in case anyone is wondering:

I fixed this by adding another preprocessing step:

Regular Expression ({.+}) (in my case)
JSON Path: $.key

Now the problem with that is , if you'd like to display more values for example: Status, upsTemp,...
You'd have to make several different regexp's because Zabbix will only allow you to use 1 request from the same link with the same regexp.

You could for example also use: web.page.regexp and put your regexp in there

[I]web[/I].[I]page[/I].[I]regexp[/I][[I]host[/I], <[I]path[/I]>, <[I]port[/I]>, <[I]regexp[/I]>, <[I]length[/I]>]

as length you could just do: \0 or \1.
But it sure as hell limits your output values.
