Zabbix Discovery JSON values

Question

I have multiple Zabbix agents (Windows agent) and I need to check software license's details on each agent via a localhost JSON URL.

On each agent we can see license information on local web URL like this http://localhost/license/GetAllActiveLicenses And this URL shows details in JSON format like this:

{"GetAllActiveLicenseResult":
    {"Licenses":[
        {"LicenseName":"ImageServer","Enabled":true,"Remaining":"383 Day","StringExpireDate":"27-4-2020 00:00:00"},
        {"LicenseName":"WebReview","Enabled":true,"Remaining":"383 Day","StringExpireDate":"27-4-2020 00:00:00"},
        {"LicenseName":"Portal","Enabled":true,"Remaining":"774 Day","StringExpireDate":"23-5-2021 00:00:00"}
    ]}
}

I need to create a discovery rule to read each license field.

Is this an actual output of the service? It's not valid JSON. — Lenniey, Apr 09 '19 at 07:18
anyway this is my url output. are you have any recommendation ? — Abbas.Kh, Apr 09 '19 at 07:33
You don't state what's not working. I won't write the zabbix template/item for you, just wanted to point out that your posted information is no valid JSON array, so that might cause some trouble. — Lenniey, Apr 09 '19 at 07:37
Maybe i can generate vali json data, But i need help to create discovery rule for this. Can you help me about this ? — Abbas.Kh, Apr 09 '19 at 07:51
Looks like the only thing messing up the JSON is the missing doublequote before the second "Remaining". — Richlv, Apr 09 '19 at 08:39

This site is not geared towards writing solutions for you, but we can look at the possible approaches to solve this.

If you have Zabbix 4.2 or later, you can use pre-processing in LLD rules to turn this JSON into a Zabbix LLD JSON (after ensuring it is a valid JSON, see comments on the question).
If you have an older version, you might need a script to perform that conversion.
