httptest.get() does not list all steps

[tvtue]

Dear Zabbix API users, I am trying to work with the API and list all httptests together with their steps. I am using the community provided python library from https://github.com/lukecyca/pyzabbix by installing it via the package manaher dnf install python-pyzabbix. The full name/version is python-pyzabbix-0.7.3-8.fc26.noarch.

The zabbix server is version 3.0.15. Authentication works and I get a list of the httptests with their attributes httptestid, name, applicationid etc. I pretty much used the parameters from the offical documentation of the api. https://www.zabbix.com/documentation...e/httptest/get

This is my for loop that prints the stuff:

for httptest in zapi.httptest.get({ "selectSteps": "extend", "output": "extend" }):
   pp.pprint(httptest)
   print

The response in the official documtation contains also the steps with their urls. I have not managed to get them yet. Also tried a ruby gem for doing the same but the result keeps also the same.

Do you have any pointer for me where I am going wrong?

Cheers,
Timo

Could you post the whole JSON you get back from Zabbix?

Also, I'm not a Python dev but according to the pyzabbix docs parameters should be passed this way:
for httptest in zapi.httptest.get(selectSteps="extend", output="extend"):

Could you post the whole JSON you get back from Zabbix?

Also, I'm not a Python dev but according to the pyzabbix docs parameters should be passed this way:
for httptest in zapi.httptest.get(selectSteps="extend", output="extend"):

This was the right pointer. It is working now with the correct parameter handover specification.

Thank you very much!

Cheers
Timo
