Trigger Action not filtering?

[coda_matt]

Hi everyone,

I've created an action trigger to send an alert to a Mattermost channel. I want to filter so only a certain group of hosts send alerts to Mattermost. The operations work perfectly, just not the filter on the trigger.

I have tried:

• Adding a "Host group equals <my group>" condition, but it was sending all alerts to the Mattermost channel
• Using condition using a tag: "Value of tag product equals <product name>", but it's still not filtering

I've attached a screenshot. Any help would be appreciated.

Verify that the Zabbix users in the operations have at least read access to the hosts.

LenR's comment sent me in the right direction.

I got it working as I wanted:

1. I created a trigger following the guide: https://www.zabbix.com/documentation...cations/action
2. In the "Operation", I had it set to send to users with a user I called mattermost_product_alerts
3. In the user configuration, I put mattermost_product_alerts in the product group
4. Finally, I gave that product group read/write permissions to the host group I wanted alerts for

Other things I did:

1. The trigger condition has "value of tag" with the machines in the host group all tagged to match

From my testing, just having the tag doesn't limit what alerts are generated.
