API & API in Zabbix

-
API (Application programming interface):   An API is a set of rules and protocols that allows one software application to interact with another. It defines the methods and data formats that applications can use to request and exchange information. APIs are typically used for both retrieving data from a service (like fetching information from a database or another web service) and sending data to a service (like submitting a form or updating information). Zabbix API: The Zabbix API is a powerful tool that allows you to interact programmatically with the Zabbix monitoring system. It provides endpoints for various operations such as managing hosts, items, triggers, and more. The Zabbix API is a JSON-RPC-based interface provided by Zabbix for programmatically interacting with and managing the Zabbix monitoring system. ### Key Features - **Automate Tasks**: Create, update, or delete objects like hosts, items, and triggers. - **Query Data**: Retrieve monitoring data, configuration detail...
