XI - Add Host Group into the notification

Hi Team,

We use Nagios XI 2014R2.3

I've looked into the Nagios XI Notification variables (below) and didn't come across one for %hostgroup%. Is there such a variable available to use within our notification settings as we will use a third party (xmatters) notification system to manage communication out from Nagios and hostgroup is the way we intend to implementation within this system?

Thanks

I don't think there is such a macro available in XI or Core for that matter. Notification options are set in host/service object, not in hostgroup. Other words, alerts are set up on each host, that is member of this particular hostgroup...
