Zabbix multiple steps to monitor service

[WhsJcp]

Hi all, I am still very new to Zabbix so I apologize if the question is not explained as good as I would like to.

I want to monitor a service that exposes APIs, however the value I want to check are presented only after a login to the same APIs.
Is it possible (and if so, how) to have Zabbix login to this service and then retrieve a JSON file, from which extract the value I need?

So far I tried the web scenarios and while succesful to log in and send the request, I see no way to actually extract the value I need and use it in a trigger.

Thanks in advance!

I got several hits searching for "zabbix extract json from web" if that one doesn't work.

One of the options is create a shell script and use curl to get the json response. Execute the shell script from zabbix. Now you can simply create dependent items with pre-processing as Json Path.
