Refer to the supported trigger functions page for a list of supported functions.
group string Return only trigger prototypes that belong to hosts from the host groups with the given name.
groupids string/array Return only trigger prototypes that belong to hosts from the given host groups.
host string Return only trigger prototypes that belong to hosts with the given name.
hostids string/array Return only trigger prototypes that belong to the given hosts.
inherited boolean If set to true return only trigger prototypes inherited from a template.
maintenance boolean If set to true return only enabled trigger prototypes that belong to hosts in maintenance.
min_severity integer Return only trigger prototypes with severity greater or equal than the given severity.
monitored flag Return only enabled trigger prototypes that belong to monitored hosts and contain only enabled items.
templated boolean If set to true return only trigger prototypes that belong to templates.
templateids string/array Return only trigger prototypes that belong to the given templates.

Does not support shorten.
selectFunctions query Return functions used in the trigger prototype in the functions property.

The function objects represents the functions used in the trigger expression and has the following properties:
functionid - (string) ID of the function;
itemid - (string) ID of the item used in the function;
function - (string) name of the function;
parameter - (string) parameter passed to the function.

Does not support shorten or arrays of properties.

filter object Return only those results that exactly match the given filter.

Accepts an array, where the keys are property names, and the values are either a single value or an array of values to match against.

Supports additional filters:
host - technical name of the host that the trigger prototype belongs to;
hostid - ID of the host that the trigger prototype belongs to.
limitSelects integer Limits the number of records returned by subselects.

Applies to the following subselects:
selectHosts - results will be sorted by host.
sortfield string/array Sort the result by the given properties.

Possible values are: triggerid, description, status and priority.
