    Time default is in seconds. But you can use quantifiers also... so if you enter just 10, it means ten seconds. if you put 600, its 10 minutes (600 seconds), but you can write 10m there, so it is better readable.

      Thank you!
      Would be really nice for Zabbix to put just a small explanation on the GUI, near that textbox.

          But seriously how can somebody find that page? I even Googled with "last of t +zabbix" etc, couldn't find that page.
          For just a basic time unit textbox, nobody should Googled or check the documents.

            "Creating and item" https://www.zabbix.com/documentation...fig/items/item
            Scrolling a bit down to field explanations, until you reach "Update Interval" and then clicking on link "Time suffixes"

              It shouldn't be under "Unit Symbols". Seriously who will find this page if they're searching/Googling for "Last of t".
              I'm even trying to create trigger prototypes, not creating an item.
              Ok you can say documentation is good, I'm not agree with that, just my opinion.

                I though I already said this, then zabbix is not for you. Zabbix has solid documentation for every release.

                  I know, I know Dear Incama, I also already told that unfortunately business team decided Zabbix, not me. I'm trying to force them to replace but no update yet.
