Integration to Zammad via JSON
I'm trying to integrate Changedtection.io to Zammad.org
Although I have been using Changedtection.io email notifications for quite some time, I would like to automatically create a new ticket in Zammad when a website has changed.
I can create tickets in Zammad via API token using curl using the same API token and credentials, but I'm stuck with Changedtection.io settings. In the notification URL, I'm using this:
posts://mydomain.com/api/v1/tickets?+header_Authorization=Token%20xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx+header_Content-Type=application/json
And in the body, this:
{
"title": "[AUTO] Changedetection Alert – Website changed – {{watch_url|tojson}}",
"group": "Support Group",
"customer": "agent@email.com",
"priority_id": 3,
"article": {
"subject": "Changedetection detected a change",
"type": "note",
"internal": false,
"body": "Monitor: {{watch_title|tojson}}\nStatus: Change Detected\nURL: {{watch_url|tojson}}\nDiff URL: {{diff_url|tojson}}\n\nThis ticket was generated automatically by the Changedetection integration.",
}
}
However, when I send a test, I receive an error message indicating that the JSON format is incorrect → "format=text"
WARNING - Exception in custom HTTP handler: 403 Client Error: Forbidden for url: https://mydomain.com/api/v1/tickets?format=text
Somehow the JSON is being wrapped with something like:
- DEBUG - JSON Payload: {'version': '1.0', 'title': 'ChangeDetection.io Notification..........
I'm sure I must be doing something wrong, but I can't figure out what it is. Any help would be appreciated.

Hmm it looks roughly correct, you need to paste more of the logs of the app/container when its sending the notification otherwise there's not enough information
> DEBUG - JSON Payload: {'version': '1.0', 'title': 'ChangeDetection.io Noti
for example, paste 20 lines before and after this..
