    Update problem when value changes

    Hello everyone.
    I have a text item that is null in OK state. If I receive any value then it is problem. I can set the trigger for strlen<>0 and it would work fine. The trick is the value can change over time and I would like to receive a notification every time it happens. For example, every subsequently received value out of [XX, XXyy, XX, XXzz, XXzz] should fire a notification. But right now it's not happening. Once the trigger is in a PROBLEM state, it's not sensitive to the value's change as long as the problem expression is true.
    I know I can use multiple events generation. But it would create unwanted notifications noise, cause the value is not changing that frequently.
    What I'm looking for is a solution of some kind to receive notification for every change in value when the problem persists.
    Any thoughts?

    You can configure your item to discard unchanged values.
