Can I have in a bash script output the error code and text passed to it like "test job 5 is down" from a bash script
and see it in Notification Messages with the error code and the text ?

I have a script the checks an application for over a 1000 lets call them services if one or more are down and if one is is down it bring the name that is down and would like to send that with the email.

Example bash script
text="this is a test"
STATE_CRITICAL=2
echo $text
exit $STATE_CRITICAL

Hi btayl,
Looking at the ticket, I'm sorry but I am still not quite understand of what and how you are running your script.
From what I know, Nagios XI do have the "Notification Management" page that you can manage your alert (notification) messages.

Nagios XI > Click on your "username" (upper right corner) > Notification Messages

Below are "Standard Marcos in Nagios" and "Understanding Notification Variables" that you can use to custom your notification messages:

If you need more helps, please include your script and more info (pictures) of what you are trying to do.
