Zabbix Api

[masonit]

Hi

I am totally new to zabbix and just trying to find my way.

I have a temperture sensor that I am collecting temperature from using powershell. Now I want to "push" these vaules to Zabbix using api.

I have created a host "house" and a item "temp". The item is a zabbix trapper (not sure if that is correct?). What api method should I use to add my temperature values to the temp item to be able to graph it? As I said I am totally new to Zabbix. Any tips and guidence would be very helpful..

*Edit* I am using Zabbix 2.4 appliance.

i guess that is not a good solution to use the API. i think a better way is to use zabbix-sender

https://www.zabbix.com/documentation/2.4/manpages/zabbix_sender

you powershell script write the temperature to standardoutput right? if so you can use a user-parameter

Yes thanks!

Does not look like you can "upload" data using API?
