Next, on your {{ settings_html|safe }}, create a bot for
{{ integration_display_name }}.
Next, open `integrations/nagios/zuliprc.example` in your favorite
editor, and change the following lines to specify the email address
and API key for your Nagios bot, saving it to `/etc/nagios3/zuliprc`
on your Nagios server:
```
[api]
email = NAGIOS_BOT_EMAIL_ADDRESS
key = NAGIOS_BOT_API_KEY
{% if api_site_required %}site = {{ external_api_uri_subdomain }}{% endif %}
```
Copy `integrations/nagios/zulip_nagios.cfg` to `/etc/nagios3/conf.d`
on your Nagios server.
Finally, add `zulip` to the `members` list for one or more of the
contact groups in the `CONTACT GROUPS` section of
`/etc/nagios3/conf.d/contacts.cfg`, doing something like:
```
define contactgroup {
contactgroup_name admins
alias Nagios Administrators
members monitoring, zulip
}
```
Once youve done that, reload your Nagios configuration using
`/etc/init.d/nagios3 reload`.
When your Nagios system makes an alert, youll see a message like the
following, to the stream `nagios` (to change this, edit the arguments
to `nagios-notify-zulip` in `/etc/nagios3/conf.d/zulip_nagios.cfg`)
with a topic indicating the service with an issue.

**Testing**
If you have [external commands enabled in Nagios][1],
you can generate a test notice from your Nagios instance by
using the `Send custom service notification` command in the
`Service Commands` section of any individual services page
on your Nagios instance.

**Troubleshooting**
You can confirm whether youve correctly configured Nagios to run the
Zulip plugin by looking for `SERVICE NOTIFICATION` lines mentioning
zulip in `/var/log/nagios3/nagios.log`. You can confirm whether youve
configured the Zulip plugin code correctly by running
`/usr/local/share/zulip/integrations/nagios/nagios-notify-zulip`
directly.
