| api_key string added in 1.3.0 of sensu.sensu_go | The API key that should be used when authenticating. If this is not set, the value of the SENSU_API_KEY environment variable will be checked. This replaces auth.user and auth.password parameters. For more information about the API key, refer to the official Sensu documentation at https://docs.sensu.io/sensu-go/latest/guides/use-apikey-feature/. | ||
| ca_path path added in 1.5.0 of sensu.sensu_go | Path to the CA bundle that should be used to validate the backend certificate. If this parameter is not set, module will use the CA bundle that python is using. It is also possible to set this parameter via the SENSU_CA_PATH environment variable. | ||
| password string | Default: "P@ssw0rd!" | The Sensu user's password. If this is not set the value of the SENSU_PASSWORD environment variable will be checked. This parameter is ignored if the auth.api_key parameter is set. | |

| user string | Default: "admin" | The username to use for connecting to the Sensu API. If this is not set the value of the SENSU_USER environment variable will be checked. This parameter is ignored if the auth.api_key parameter is set. | |
| verify boolean added in 1.5.0 of sensu.sensu_go |
| Flag that controls the certificate validation. If you are using self-signed certificates, you can set this parameter to false.ONLY USE THIS PARAMETER IN DEVELOPMENT SCENARIOS! In you use self-signed certificates in production, see the auth.ca_path parameter. It is also possible to set this parameter via the SENSU_VERIFY environment variable. | |
| check string / required | Name of the check associated with this event. It must exist before event creation. | ||
| check_attributes dictionary | Additional check parameters. Find out more at https://docs.sensu.io/sensu-go/latest/reference/events/#check-attributes. | ||
| duration float | Command execution time in seconds. | ||
| executed integer | Time that the check request was executed. | ||
| history list / elements=dictionary | Check status history for the last 21 check executions. | ||
| issued integer | Time that the check request was issued in seconds since the Unix epoch. | ||
| last_ok integer | The last time that the check returned an OK status (0) in seconds since the Unix epoch. | ||
| output string | The output from the execution of the check command. | ||
| state string |
| The state of the check. | |
| status string |
| Exit status code produced by the check. | |
| total_state_change integer | The total state change percentage for the check's history. | ||
| entity string / required | Name of the entity associated with this event. It must exist before event creation. | ||
| metric_attributes dictionary | Metric attributes. Find out more at https://docs.sensu.io/sensu-go/latest/reference/events/#metric-attributes. | ||
| handlers list / elements=string | An array of Sensu handlers to use for events created by the check. Each array item must be a string. | ||
| points list / elements=dictionary | Metric data points including a name, timestamp, value, and tags. | ||
