Pass a parameter from Zabbix (external script) to python code

[cyberneticrat]

Hello.
I want to know how to pass a parameter from zabbix to my python script. For example, I have an url in my script, example: "http://127.0.0.1/api/information". I need to pass the macro variable {HOST.CONN} in this ip area of my url, like this: "http://{HOST.CONN}/api/information" and this ip will be replaced by my configured ip host on zabbix. Now my python script is working, it's something like this: api_url = req.get("http://ip-address/api/information") but it's static.

Any ideas?

I might be misunderstanding the question, but...

External Script Documentation section shows you how to pass params to script?

Here is example from one of my Zabbix 4.4 setups:

data_collection_v2_nix.py[SOMETHING-01, some_id]

And in Python it goes something like:

import sys

def main(argv):
  Name = argv[0]
  ID = argv[1]
  #Rest of code goes here

main(sys.argv[1:])

And then feel free to use your new variables in Python however you want.

As {HOST.CONN} can be used in item keys, you should have no issue using it there instead of static strings in my example.

Please do correct me if I did not understood what exactly you were asking for.
