Different trigger responses depending on time

[sguilliard]

I'm having the following setup:
Zabbix 4.0
Trigger 1) condition to send email and sms during daytime
Trigger 2) condition to send email during nighttime

If that issue starts at night I won't recieve any SMS later, it will just stick with sending emails.

Unfortunately using different users where the SMS "active" time is configured differently isn't an option since we would need a lot of different users to get all cases and thus the operations team would need to change a lot of contacts every time another member is on oncall duty.
Also configuring the item to only run during day isn't an option too since we want to use "Zabbix Agent (active)" checks to keep the proxy load low.

Is there a way to get zabbix to only send SMS during daytime even if the alert started at night?

I had a similar issue, dealt with it creating two media types for the user (e-mail and SMS), setting one time range for each one, so if the trigger triggers in SMS time, it will not send an e-mail and vice-versa.

I noticed that in Zabbix 4.0 you can create a trigger setting time period, so I guess you could go that way also.
