Using Host Inventory Name as Visible Name

[openconcepttech]

Hey Guys,

New here in the forum and a bit above average in the Zabbix scene. I need some help. I have everything configured OK in 3.2 (Thanks to SNMP Builder)

WHAT I WANT TO ACCOMPLISH:
Using the macro of {INVENTORY.NAME<1-9>}, I would like to use a similar macro for showing the "Visible Name" of what the Inventory screen has.

Reason:
We have customers that sometimes require a radio swap or have canceled customers, or etc. Its easier than having to go in and rename each hosts configuration each time we have a change as such.


If anyone has any kind of solution, please let me know. If not, Move this post to the feature request Sub-Forum please.

Hi

{INVENTORY.NAME<1-9>} location based (trigger/internal notification): https://www.zabbix.com/documentation...ed_by_location

With Zabbix API you can change required fields on CRM/Billing update: https://www.zabbix.com/documentation/3.2/ru/manual/api

FYI, here is the script I wrote for updating the visible name from the inventory and a couple other things via the API and python: https://pastebin.com/DvcWyC5r
