Zabbix plugin not working on save and test

I am on Debian 10, Grafana v7.3.6 and Zabbix server v5.0.6

Followed this quick tutorial: Configuring Grafana with Zabbix - Zabbix Blog
Using zabbix administrator credentials.

Every time I click save and test I get this error:
Post “127.0.0.1/zabbix/api_jsonrpc.php”: unsupported protocol scheme “”

I have the same problem.
Did you manage to solve?

Nope, havent tried anything to fix it either though.

you didn’t put the http: //
http://127.0.0.1/zabbix/api_jsonrpc.php

The reason I didn’t use it was because it just stopped eventually with this error:
Post "https://nms.domainname.com/": stopped after 10 redirects.

Not sure why its trying to use domain name lookup and not just the IP…

Changed nginx redirect for port 80 to the IP url, now I get:
invalid character '<' looking for beginning of value

I guess two steps back, one step forward?

Got it finally. I guess the tutorial needs some updating…
https://IPADDR/api_jsonrpc.php
with skip tls verify

In the URL field, by default there is a grey URL. In my case, this was the exact URL I needed so I left it as-is. The system interpreted this as being blank and it caused this error.

I fixed problem change locahost to 127.0.0.1 ,now it is ok.

I did that and it worked, thanks

Hi all,

@onixnf Zabbix is actually a community-based plugin so not maintained by us. If you had found their documentation or blog up to date then either please report it to them OR post here with the working solution steps so that other users can get help from you.

Friend the problem is in the IP that is a local host, change it to the IP of your ZAbbix.
