Sorry but this is the right command:

# clickatell alert ‘host-notify-by-sms’ command definition
define command{
command_name host_notify_with_sms
command_line wget –post-data “user=myusername&password=mypassword&api_id=xxxxxx&to=$CONTACTPAGER$&text= -m ‘$NOTIFICATION$ $HOSTNAME$ is $HOSTSTATE$ ($HOSTOUTPUT$)’” http://api.clickatell.com/http/sendmsg
}

ENJOY!!

You sent an alert without using those plugins check this url http://www.gnu.org/software/wget/manual/html_node/HTTP-Options.html
from their example: http://api.clickatell.com/http/sendmsg?user=xxxxx&password=xxxxx&api_id=xxxxx&to=448311234567&text=Meet+me+at+home you can simply replace xxxx item with information you got and do this to your command config:

define command{
command_name service_notify_with_sms
command_line wget –post-data “user=myusername&password=mypassword$api_id=XXXXXXX&to=’$NOTIFICATIONTYPE$: $HOSTNAME$ is $SERVICESTATE$ ($SERVICEOUTPUT$)’ -t $CONTACTPAGER$
}

I HOPE THIS COULD HELP!!

Not sure, I am using it with authentication when sending each message since I don’t have users on my system so I don’t really care about password showing

“Clickatell API has an option to authenticate for each message, instead of opening a session, which only requires 1 HTTP request. I’ll try it out.” — how is the procedure for these? Im having a hard time configuring my nagios for clickatell.. Please help. Thanks!!

The version 1.1 on nagiosexchange.org:

-puts username/password on commandline where any logged in user can see it,
-Clickatell API has an option to authenticate for each message, instead of opening a session, which only requires 1 HTTP request. I’ll try it out.
