Trigger will not allow Log Severity when Severity is Specified in Item

[rburkholder]

I have the following item key to pull event logs from a host with log severity Warning|High|Critical:

eventlog[Application,,"Warning|Error|Critical",MR_Monitor,, ,skip]

However, I cannot create a severity specific trigger with the following expression:

{HOSTNAME:eventlog[Application,,"Warning|Error|Critical",MR_Monitor,, ,skip].logseverity(2)}=2

Clicking add generates the following error:

Incorrect item value type "Text" provided for trigger function "logseverity(2)".

Zabbix Server Version is 3.2.1.

What am I doing wrong here?

Hi, rburkholder!

When you create item, you need to configure the Type of Information field as Log, but you have specified there Text. Try to change the Value in Item and it should work fine!
