zabbix-utils
A library with modules for working with Zabbix (Zabbix API, Zabbix sender, Zabbix get)
Decision gist · record as of 2026-08-14
Yes. The package is production-stable, maintained by Zabbix, has no required dependencies, and offers a clean API for all three Zabbix integration patterns (API, sender, getter). Install it if you need to automate Zabbix tasks or integrate Zabbix data into Python applications. The aging maintenance status reflects normal release cadence rather than abandonment.AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying
Before you install
- Requires Zabbix 6.0+ server; Python 3.8+ required.
- Low friction installation with no required runtime dependencies; optional aiohttp for async support.
- Aging maintenance status with last commit 2025-12-17, but repository remains active and production-stable.

What it is and what it does
zabbix_utils is a Python library for integrating with Zabbix monitoring infrastructure. It provides three main interfaces: a ZabbixAPI client for querying and configuring Zabbix via its HTTP API (supporting both synchronous and asynchronous I/O), a Sender for pushing item values to Zabbix servers or proxies, and a Getter for retrieving metrics directly from Zabbix agents. The library handles authentication via username/password or API tokens, supports version comparison, and can route data to multiple Zabbix clusters.
The package has no required runtime dependencies for basic use; aiohttp is optional and only needed for asynchronous operations. It supports Python 3.8 through 3.13 and is tested against Zabbix versions 6.0, 7.0, 7.2, and 7.4. The library is maintained by the Zabbix project itself and carries production-stable status, making it suitable for operational monitoring scripts and integrations.
Use it for
- Automate Zabbix configuration tasks like importing templates or querying user lists via the API.
- Send custom application metrics to Zabbix for centralized monitoring of non-standard data sources.
- Query Zabbix agents directly to retrieve system metrics without going through the Zabbix server.
- Build async monitoring dashboards or data pipelines that pull metrics from multiple Zabbix clusters.
- Integrate Zabbix data into Python-based alerting or reporting workflows.
