httptest_get
Read-only
Retrieve Zabbix web scenarios (HTTP tests) to inspect multi-step HTTP checks, filter by host or status, and return selected properties, counts, or sorted results.
Instructions
Retrieve web scenarios (HTTP tests). Web scenarios perform multi-step HTTP checks against web applications, verifying availability, response time, and expected content. Each scenario contains ordered steps and automatically creates web-monitoring items on the host.
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: agent, authentication, delay, headers, hostid, http_password, http_proxy, http_user, httptestid, name, nextcheck (removed in 6.4), retries, ssl_cert_file, ssl_key_file, ssl_key_password, status, templateid, uuid (6.0+), variables, verify_host, verify_peer. Text properties cannot be filtered; use 'search' for them. | |
| output | No | Properties of the httptest object to return. Pass 'extend' for all, 'count' for the number of matches only, or a list of property names. Default when omitted: httptestid, hostid, name, status. Properties: agent, authentication, delay, headers, hostid, http_password, http_proxy, http_user, httptestid, name, nextcheck (removed in 6.4), retries, ssl_cert_file, ssl_key_file, ssl_key_password, status, templateid, uuid (6.0+), variables, 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: agent, delay, http_password, http_proxy, http_user, name, ssl_cert_file, ssl_key_file, ssl_key_password, uuid (6.0+). | |
| server | No | Target Zabbix server. Available: default. Defaults to 'default' if omitted. | |
| hostids | No | Return only web scenarios that belong to the given hosts. | |
| groupids | No | Return only web scenarios that belong to hosts in the given host groups. | |
| 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: httptestid, name (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. | |
| httptestids | No | Return only web scenarios with the given IDs. | |
| searchByAny | No | If true, return results matching ANY search field (OR). Default is ALL fields (AND). | |
| templateids | No | Return only web scenarios that belong to the given templates. | |
| extra_params | No | Other native httptest.get parameters, merged into the request as-is. Parameters: evaltype (6.0+), expandName, expandStepName, groupCount, inherited, inheritedTags (8.0+), monitored, tags (6.0+), templated. Switches (true turns one on, false is the same as leaving it out): expandName, expandStepName, groupCount. groupCount goes with output='count': the count is then split by the ID filters the method groups by (hostids, groupids ...), one row per ID with 'rowscount'; a single row without such a filter. Sub-object selects (value 'extend', 'count' or a list of property names): selectHosts, selectInheritedTags (8.0+), selectSteps, selectTags (6.0+). 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. |
