Ansible/Netbox/Zabbix

Ansible when it runs takes an "inventory" of each machines hardware unless you specifically tell it not to. This inventory is fairly extensive and you can write a playbook that will export it to a .json or .yaml file on each individual host. Pretty neat! Now I know that Netbox can take that info and bring it into Netbox so you don't have to manually setup all your stuff. I also know that you can leverage these same files to setup hosts for monitoring in Zabbix. Has anyone here done this? If so can anyone give me some pointers on where to start learning how?
