Connection Requirements

1 - IP

The IP address or hostname of the Checkmk server.

2 - Username

A local Checkmk user account with access to the REST API. The built-in cmkadmin account or any user with at least read permissions on host and user endpoints can be used.

3 - Password

The password for the Checkmk user account specified above.

4 - Site

The Checkmk site name. This is part of the URL path of the Checkmk instance (e.g. https://<ip>/<site>/check_mk/). The default site name is cmk.

5 - Port

The HTTPS port of the Checkmk server. Defaults to 443. Change this if the instance is running on a non-standard port.

Default Values

• Port: 443

• Is Secure: true

• Site: cmk

• Timeout: 30

Permissions Required

The Checkmk user must have access to the REST API. An admin role or a role with read permissions on the Host Configuration and User Management sections is sufficient. No special automation secrets are required — standard password authentication is used.
