{HOST.DESCRIPTION} not working

[tbyte]

In the trigger name I'm trying to put "Response time is too high on {HOST.DESCRIPTION}" but it doesn't work for some reason. All other {HOST.[VAR]} work like {HOST.IP}, {HOST.NAME} and so on. Is it not allowed there ?

The manual describes each macro where it can be used.

https://www.zabbix.com/documentation/3.2/manual/appendix/macros/supported_by_location

{HOST.DESCRIPTION} can not be used in the trigger name.
