store the data metrics from Zabbix agent in milliseconds resolution insted of minutes

[vamshi_pulluri]

I want different data metrics like CPU utilization, memory utilization from Zabbix agent with milliseconds resolution instead of minutes resolution.

I am using Zabbix Python API to retrieve metrics from Mysql Zabbix database and noticed that data is stored with minutes resolution, which is as shown below:

 Sl.NO Date Value  
1 Monday, March 25, 2019 04:22:07 0.0700
2 Monday, March 25, 2019 04:23:07 0.0600 

Is it possible in Zabbix to store the data metrics with milliseconds (or nanoseconds) resolution. If yes, how should I do that.

I've never used it, but is specified in the docs that this is possible:

https://www.zabbix.com/documentation/2.0/manual/appendix/api/history/definitions

You should use the "ns" field, that specifies "Nanoseconds when the value was received."
