2. Create or edit an action.

4. Save the action.
4. In the **Recovery operations** tab, add the same operation that sends a message via the **OpsiMate** media type. Zabbix only sends the recovery message from Recovery operations, and OpsiMate's auto-resolve depends on it.

Correct the recovery-operation navigation.

Recovery operations is a section under the action's Operations tab, not a separate tab. Following this instruction can prevent users from configuring auto-resolve. (zabbix.com)

Review comment at @opsimate-docs/docs/integrations/zabbix.md at line 135:
Update the Zabbix setup instructions to describe Recovery operations as a
section under the Operations tab, not as a separate tab. Keep the guidance to
add the same OpsiMate message-sending operation under Recovery operations.

After applying the fix, consider running `coderabbit review --agent` for local
review. Visit https://docs.coderabbit.ai/cli?utm_source=ghpr

5. Save the action.

## Features

- **Auto-resolve**: Alerts are automatically archived when resolved in Zabbix
- **Auto-resolve**: Alerts are automatically resolved in OpsiMate when resolved in Zabbix
- **Deep links**: Click alerts in OpsiMate to jump directly to Zabbix
- **Rich tags**: Host, severity, and custom tags are preserved

## Test it

1. Trigger a test problem in Zabbix.
2. Verify that the alert appears on the **Alerts** page in OpsiMate.
3. Resolve the problem in Zabbix.
4. Verify that the alert moves to **Resolved**.

## Important Disclaimer

Zabbix sends webhooks to **HTTP endpoints that must be reachable from the Zabbix server**.
