3. After performing this operation, go to the file in the nagios/etc/objects/commands.cfg path and add the following.

```bash ##############PARNY################## define command { command_name notify-service-by-parny command_line /usr/local/bin/parny-new.sh "$HOSTNAME$" "$HOSTOUTPUT$" "$SERVICEDESC$" } define command { command_name notify-host-by-parny command_line /usr/local/bin/parny-new.sh "$HOSTNAME$" "$HOSTOUTPUT$" "$HOSTSTATE$" } ``` 4. After performing this operation, the specified file path of the script below must be added in order to send a healthy alert through the script. If the correct path is not given, it will not work. In the example above, it is defined as /usr/local/bin/parny-new.sh.

```bash #!/usr/bin/env bash date=$(date +%Y-%m-%d) echo "$date" PARNY_URL=https://nagios.parny.io/alert/****** hosts_total=$(( $NAGIOS_TOTALHOSTSUP + $NAGIOS_TOTALHOSTSDOWN )) services_total=$(( $NAGIOS_TOTALSERVICESOK + $NAGIOS_TOTALSERVICEPROBLEMS )) DATA="{ \"embeds\": { \"hostname\": \"($1)\", \"description\": \"$2\", \"hoststate\": \"$3\", \"datetime\": \"$date\" } }" curl -4 -X POST --data "$DATA" $PARNY_URL exit $? ``` drawing

With these settings, your Nagios alarms will be forwarded to Parny, allowing you to manage them alongside your other alerts within your organization's Parny interface.
