LINE webhook

This guide describes how to integrate your Zabbix installation with LINE messenger using Zabbix webhook feature. It also provides instructions on setting up a media type, a user and an action in Zabbix.

In LINE developer console

1. Create a messaging channel access token following original instructions on How to use the messaging API.

2. Copy the channel access token of your new integration to be used in Zabbix.

In Zabbix

The configuration consists of a Media type in Zabbix, which will invoke the webhook to send alerts to LINE messenger through the LINE messaging API.

1. Create a global macro {$ZABBIX.URL} following these instructions in Zabbix documentation with Zabbix frontend URL - for example, http://192.168.7.123:8081.

2. Import LINE media type from this file media_line.yaml following these instructions in Zabbix documentation.

3. Change the value of the variable bot_token to the channel access token.

For more information on Zabbix webhook configuration, see Zabbix documentation.

4. Set Media type LINE for each user you would like to get notified and fill Send to field with the corresponding ID of the target recipient. Use a userId, groupId, or roomId value. See Common properties in webhook event objects for more information.

See more details on creating Zabbix user.

LINE user should suffice the default settings as this user will not be logging into Zabbix. Note that in order to be notified about problems on a host, this user must have at least read permissions for this host.
When configuring an alert action, add this user in the Send to users field (in Operation details) - this will tell Zabbix to use LINE webhook when sending notifications from this action. Use the LINE user in any actions of your choice.

Testing

Media testing can be done manually, from Media types page. Press Test button opposite to the previously defined media type, under Actions.

1. To create a problem, following fields should be set:

   • alert_message = Test message
   • alert_subject = Test subject
   • bot_token = Channel access token
   • event_id = 1234567890
   • event_nseverity = 5
   • event_source = 0 (it simulates trigger based event)
   • event_update_status = 0 (not an update operation)
   • event_value = 1 (this is a problem event)
   • send_to = ID of the recipient
   • trigger_description = Test trigger description
   • trigger_id = 0987654
   • zabbix_url = https://127.0.0.1

   

2. Having successfully sent a message from Zabbix, check if it has been received by the recipient.

Supported Versions

Zabbix 7.0, LINE messaging API.
