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 LLD rule belongs to.
limitSelects integer Limits the number of records returned by subselects.

Applies to the following subselects:
selctItems;
selectGraphs;
selectTriggers.
sortfield string/array Sort the result by the given properties.

Possible values are: itemid, name, key_, delay, type and status.
countOutput boolean These parameters being common for all get methods are described in detail in the reference commentary.
editable boolean
excludeSearch boolean
limit integer
output query
preservekeys boolean
search object
searchByAny boolean
searchWildcardsEnabled boolean
sortorder string/array
startSearch boolean

Return values

(integer/array) Returns either:

  • an array of objects;
