What the Voxira integration adds to Checkmk

Add automated voice calls to Checkmk host and service notifications with Voxira. A site-local Python script turns notification environment data into a spoken message and callflow parameters. Checkmk notification rules keep control of the hosts, services, states, contacts and time periods that should result in telephone alerts.

Example workflow

Create a Checkmk notification rule for an important host or service. When its state matches the rule, Voxira calls the configured on-call number with a summary of the check result.

From an event to a spoken phone call

The integration sends your message and event data to a Voxira callflow. Its text-to-speech configuration determines how the notification is spoken. Voxira queues the call and executes it asynchronously; a successful queue request does not confirm that the recipient answered. Call status is available in Voxira.

Integration questions

Does the Checkmk notification script need Python packages?

No external Python packages are needed. The script uses the standard library and runs as a site-local Checkmk notification method.
