HTTP request as action?

[dmertens]

Hello Alex,

Is there a way to send a HTTP request after a test has failed?
I would like to make a incident in our helpdesk software and this is possible with an HTTP request.

If not do you now a script or program that I can use for this purpose, then I maybe can use the option Execute external program in HostMonitor

Thanks in advance

Kind regards

Danny

Use "Send data to TCP/UDP port" action.

Hello Alex,

OK now I’m sure, I did everything correct, no it’s not working then.
Is it possible to view if the action was send, because now I don’t get an incident, but I’m not sure where the problem is coming from, Hostmonitor or TOPdesk.

If I use the URL in IE everything works fine, the only problem I have is that my incident isn’t saved, length of the URL???? But the card is created and all the fields are filled in like requested, so I’m pretty sure the URL is OK.

Is the URL length a problem for the action in Hostmonitor?

Thanks in advance

Kind regards,

Danny
