Hello Team,

Appreciate your support in setting up Nagios XI to send the events data to MoogSoft using Webhook integration.

Hi @ashokkuma, thanks for reaching out.

Are you looking for assistance with Webhook?

The Slack wizard uses a Webhook plugin (configwizards/eventhandler_notify_slack), if you are looking for examples.

There are also a few Webhook plugins on the Nagios Exchange

Integration with Moogsoft is not difficult however it will require a modicum of strategy be employed to make XI something of a usable signal source.

Signal Origin Type:
This will be either an alert using the NagiosXI notification workflow or an event handler implementation. Both options will require a little scripting.

The notification workflow allows you to use basic criteria and controls already available within XI to manage the signal being sent to Moogsoft.

The event handler evaluation of the check status results requires deeper programming but, is more powerful in my opinion and can be set at the global level.

Signal Payload:
The payload format required by Moogsoft is pretty simple.

Populating the payload:
This is where your host and service naming conventions come into play. You can build a descriptive payload to forward to Moogsoft using the Nagios Macros and custom vars to align and set your tags.

Signaling Moogsoft:
This is just an http POST with a json payload as described in the Moogsoft docs.


Happy Monitoring!
