connector_get
Retrieve and filter Zabbix event connectors to inspect endpoints, formats, authentication, and forwarding rules for SIEM, alerting, or custom event pipelines.
Instructions
Retrieve event connectors. Connectors stream Zabbix events to external systems in real time, enabling SIEM integration, custom event pipelines, and third-party alerting. Each connector defines a URL endpoint, data format, authentication, and filtering rules for which events to forward.
Input Schema
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| limit | No | Maximum number of results to return. | |
| filter | No | Return only results whose properties exactly match the given values (a single value or a list of values per key). Example: {"status": 0} or {"status": [0, 1]}. Keys: attempt_interval (7.0+), authtype, connectorid, data_type, http_proxy, item_value_type (7.0+), max_attempts, max_records, max_senders, name, password, protocol, ssl_cert_file, ssl_key_file, ssl_key_password, status, tags_evaltype, timeout, token, url, username, verify_host, verify_peer. Text properties cannot be filtered; use 'search' for them. | |
| output | No | Properties of the connector object to return. Pass 'extend' for all, 'count' for the number of matches only, or a list of property names. Default when omitted: connectorid, name, status. Properties: attempt_interval (7.0+), authtype, connectorid, data_type, description, http_proxy, item_value_type (7.0+), max_attempts, max_records, max_senders, name, password, protocol, ssl_cert_file, ssl_key_file, ssl_key_password, status, tags_evaltype, timeout, token, url, username, verify_host, verify_peer. | |
| search | No | Return results whose string properties contain the given pattern (case-insensitive; '*' is a wildcard when searchWildcardsEnabled is true). Example: {"name": "web"}. Keys: attempt_interval (7.0+), description, http_proxy, name, password, ssl_cert_file, ssl_key_file, ssl_key_password, timeout, token, url, username. | |
| server | No | Target Zabbix server. Available: default. Defaults to 'default' if omitted. | |
| raw_json | No | Strips the security disclaimer preamble from the response so it is pure JSON. Default: false. Requires the bearer token to have 'allow_raw_json' explicitly enabled by an operator in the admin portal - tokens without that policy receive a PolicyError instead. WARNING: setting true bypasses the prompt-injection mitigation marker that wraps untrusted Zabbix data (host names, item descriptions, problem text). LLM clients (Claude, GPT, Cursor, ...) should leave this false; only programmatic non-LLM consumers (Python scripts, n8n workflows that json.loads the result) should set true. | |
| sortfield | No | Sort by one or more of: connectorid, name, data_type, status (a list for several; pair with 'sortorder'). No other property is sortable. | |
| sortorder | No | Sort order: 'ASC' (ascending) or 'DESC' (descending). | |
| countOutput | No | Return the count of matching results instead of the actual data. | |
| searchByAny | No | If true, return results matching ANY search field (OR). Default is ALL fields (AND). | |
| connectorids | No | Return only connectors with the given IDs. | |
| extra_params | No | Other native connector.get parameters, merged into the request as-is. Sub-object selects (value 'extend', 'count' or a list of property names): selectTags. Any other key is refused here, because Zabbix would silently ignore it. For a parameter you are sure exists on your release but is not listed, use zabbix_raw_api_call. | |
| searchWildcardsEnabled | No | If true, enable * and ? wildcards in search patterns. |
