 Description   

Currently slack integration with zabbix 5.0 does not work.

This is due to a misconfigured api endpoint

Steps to reproduce:

  1. https://git.zabbix.com/projects/ZBX/repos/zabbix/browse/templates/media/slack/media_slack.xml#475
  2. var slack_endpoint = 'https://slack.com/api/'
  3. http post https://slack.com/api Content-Type:'application/json; charset=utf-8' Authorization:'Bearer xoxb-.....'
    HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently
    content-length: 229
  1. url needs to be https://api.slack.com/
  2. and or overridable with a macro please

 

Also please note: https://git.zabbix.com/projects/ZBX/repos/zabbix/browse/templates/media/slack/media_slack.xml#494

Mattermost when calling slack

 

Result:
See screenshot...

Expected:
Working slack integration

Also nothing shows in the logs about this error

it seems that there is a handler for it tho https://api.slack.com/web

Apologues, it appears the url is actually correct; however the log message is wrong and also

 

Ive implemented it in z5 according to https://www.zabbix.com/integrations/slack

However no actions take place.

The document above places the token directly in the media_type definition; however from a security pov the token and zabbix_url could/should come from the macros section?

 

Using macros with the required values does not work.

 most frustrating thing.. have created a test file and a trigger to alert against it.. on the zabbix server.. disaster level..

 

dashboard alerts..

but no slack notifications are sent.. and no logs...
