Documentation/tutorials on integrating external perl script for SMS notification

General

I am running checkmk-v2.1 and I am interested in adding SMS notifications to this checkmk without butchering any of the script files.

I have a perl script that can send SMS notifications. I would like to use this script as a plugin to checkmk to send notifications in SMS as well. Is there documentation or recommended tutorials for integrating such scripts? I am avoiding to have to butcher the checkmk scripts and subsystems and mess with its automation.

I think my question required a bit of reading. I found it in chapter 4 or 5 of the documentation. It describes the perfect way to install my custom script for sending SMS notifications.

But I am now struggling with getting the notification rule to automatically detect my script so I can configure it in the Notifications Setup gui. Hopefully I can figure out the layout required for the Perl script to be detectable in the notifications folder of OMD checkmk 2.1

Do you have the script name below the shebang?

#!/usr/bin/env perl
#My custom notification script

Hi @mike1098

I have the below. But I will also reconfigure and try out the line you suggest. Thank you.

#!/usr/bin/perl
