Zabbix Agent not sending Zabbix alerts into datadog

[rahil471]

We are trying to send Zabbix Alerts into DD so that we can have them in one place.

We are using the below link for the integration.

https://docs.datadoghq.com/integrations/zabbix/

The integration shows successful OK and we are able to get Zabbix metrics, however we are not receiving Zabbix alerts as events into datadog.

We tried reaching the DD team and they directed us here. Here is their response, which might help.

Error log from DD flare.

Error observed on the media type integration page.

[datadog webhook] event creation failed : json undefined
[datadog webhook] event creation failed : ReferenceError : identifier 'CurlHttpRequest' undefined

Additionally they pointed out that the error is origination from this piece of code.

@yzhan289 did you ever get a resolution to this? I am having the same issue setting up Event collection using the script recommended by both zabbix and datadog?

`try { Zabbix.Log(4, '[datadog webhook] received value=' + value);

    var params = JSON.parse(value);
    var req = new CurlHttpRequest();
    req.AddHeader('Content-Type: application/json');
    var webhook_url = 'https://app.datadoghq.com/intake/webhook/zabbix?api_key=' + params.api_key;
    var webhook_data = value;
    var resp = req.Post(webhook_url, webhook_data);
    if (req.Status() != 202) {
        throw 'Response code: '+req.Status();
    }
    Zabbix.Log(4, '[datadog webhook] received response with status code ' + req.Status() + '\n' + resp);
} catch (error) {
    Zabbix.Log(4, '[datadog webhook] event creation failed json : ' + webhook_data)
    Zabbix.Log(4, '[datadog webhook] event creation failed : ' + error);
}
return JSON.stringify({});`
