titleMethod 2: Configure by using Golang flags

Configure by entering flags into the command from the Nagios XI web interface through Configure > Core Config Manager > Commands. Use -apiKey flag for your apiKey and -ns flag for your nagios_server name. If you don't have multiple Nagios servers, you don't have to define the Nagios server. Using flags overwrites all the other configuration methods mentioned earlier.

To send additional custom arguments, add them after the flags. For example, customArgName1 customArgValue1 customArgName2 customArgValue2. Parse custom arguments by adding {{_payload.customArgName}} to wherever is needed in the input fields. To learn more about using raw parameters, see dynamic fields.
