Zabbix Plugin Setup
Before using the plugin you have to provide Zabbix server connection details to your Confluence instance.
Using Zabbix administration pages, create “confluence” account in “confluence” user group and grant the group read-only permissions to whatever hosts you choose to be available in your Confluence instance.
Confluence user
In Confluence, install the plugin and navigate to configuration screen by pressing Configure button.
Configure button
Create a new Zabbix server connection by providing Zabbix server address and credentials.
Configuration screen
You may share your connection descriptor with other Confluence users by selecting a user or a user group in Grantees field.
You may also set the connection as Default. This option is maintained for compatibility only.

create a Confluence user zabbix-anonymous
navigate to the plugin configuration page (use the plugin Configure button) and edit your Zabbix server grantees to include the user zabbix-anonymous.
as a final step – disable zabbix-anonymous user
