Configuration / Installation

First of all: You need to install the requests module for python, this is required for operation!
To do so, enter pip install requests in your commandline!

  • Put zbxtg.py in your AlertScriptsPath directory, the path is set inside your zabbix_server.conf
  • Put zbxtg_group.py in the same location if you want to send messages to the group chat
  • Create zbxtg_settings.py with your settings and save them in the same directory as the script, see example for layout
  • Create a bot in Telegram and get API key
  • Create readonly user in Zabbix (for getting graphs images from zabbix)
  • Set proxy host:port in zbxtg_settings.py if you need an internet proxy
  • Add new media for Telegram in Zabbix web interface with these settings:

  • Add another one if you want to send messages to the group

Last value: {ITEM.LASTVALUE1} ({TIME})
zbxtg;graphs
zbxtg;graphs_period=10800
zbxtg;itemid:{ITEM.ID1}
zbxtg;title:{HOST.HOST} - {TRIGGER.NAME}

  • Add the appropriate Media Type to your user

  • The username is CASE-SENSITIVE

  • Group chats don't have URLs, so you need to put group's name in media type

  • Messages for channels should be sent as for private chats

  • Private:

  • For <username> substitute your Telegram username, NOT that of your bot (case-sensitive)
  • For <message_subject> and <message_body> just substitute something like "test" "test" (for Telegram it's doesn't matter between subject and body
  • You can omit the ", these are optional
