33 What's new in Zabbix 7.0.28

VMware alarm items include entity names

The JSON returned by vmware.*.alarms.get[] items now includes a name field inside the entity object for each alarm. This field provides the affected entity's name, and the change request explicitly calls out the real host name for native vmware.*.alarms.get item keys. The existing entity object already returns the entity ID, UUID, and type.

If you have scripts that parse VMware alarm item output, you may need to update them to handle the additional field.
