Send specific metric value as a notification

[disson]

Hey!

We have been using Zabbix for many years for monitoring everything and update from time to time. Works stable and pretty good.
Now I have a task that I need to send an item value to our slack at specific time, without firing any trigger. Just a notification. This necessary
We have necessary data to be sent, but how to implement this I don't know how. I realize Zabbix is a monitoring system, but probably there is a workaround. Let's say use trigger which is always true then this trigger goes false.
Is time() function suitable for this? Don't know how to use in trigger expression. Any ideas?

It seems to me that what you are asking for a notification system, right?
I think that Zabbix scheduled reports might suit your needs.

Or, maybe, you could create a trigger that becomes true whenever a specific time is set. When that happens, you could have an action that sends a Slack notification.
