Zabbix Configuration Exporter Latest Release

This tool connects to the Zabbix API and retrieves configuration and stores this in individual files, allowing you to re-use these templates and make backups of them (e.g. by adding them to version control).

It is capable of exporting the following:

  • Templates
  • Mediatypes
  • Hosts
  • Host Groups
  • Maps
  • Images

Tested with Zabbix 5.4.x

Install

Install the requirements:

$ pip3 install -r requirements.txt

Usage

You can provide your credentials on the commandline:

usage: export.py [-h] [--server ZABBIX_HOST] [--token ZABBIX_API_TOKEN] [--format {xml,json,yaml}] [--type {templates,mediatypes,hosts,hostgroups,maps,images}] [--debug]

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  --server ZABBIX_HOST, -s ZABBIX_HOST
                        Zabbix URL
  --token ZABBIX_API_TOKEN
                        Zabbix API token
  --format {xml,json,yaml}, -f {xml,json,yaml}
                        Export the templates as XML or JSON
  --type {templates,mediatypes,hosts,hostgroups,maps,images}, -t {templates,mediatypes,hosts,hostgroups,maps,images}
                        Export this type of entities
  --debug, -d           Enable debugging output

You can also configure your credentials globally and export these (e.g. in .bashrc or .zshrc) like this:

export ZABBIX_HOST=https://zabbix.example.com
export ZABBIX_API_TOKEN=your-token

Limitations

  • Exporting auto-discovered hosts results in an empty file, because the Zabbix API does not provide this information.
