    Question about webhooks

    I have learned from here that Zabbix has the capability to create Webhooks for performing HTTP calls, enabling integration with external systems such as Teams or Telegram. However, in my case, I am interested in the reverse scenario where I want to send data from Juniper MIST to Zabbix using Webhooks. Is there a mechanism or configuration within Zabbix that allows it to receive data via Webhooks, thus facilitating integration with MIST for alerting purposes?

    So to simplify, Is there any way to send data to Zabbix via Webhook?

    Many thanks in advance.

    Zabbix accepts data from outside via trapper items (zabbix_sender utility) . You can emulate the protocol... https://www.zabbix.com/documentation.../items/trapper
    But it is not a webserver, what receives this. It is server/proxy, what accepts the data. If you a good enough codewriter, you can create an API on top of it and then submit data from web and your API does the rest, submitting it over to zabbix server/proxy. I think we used to have one of such API-s in-house a while ago. Same reasons, people wanted to submit data, but using zabbix_sender directly was complicated...
