2 Templates

Overview

Templates are exported with many related objects and object relations.

Template export contains:

linked host groups
template data
linkage to other templates
linkage to host groups
directly linked applications
directly linked items
directly linked triggers
directly linked graphs
directly linked screens
directly linked discovery rules with all prototypes
directly linked web scenarios
value maps

Exporting

To export templates, do the following:

Go to: Configuration → Templates
Mark the checkboxes of the templates to export
Click on Export below the list

Selected templates are exported to a local XML file with default name zabbix_export_templates.xml.

Importing

To import templates, do the following:

Go to: Configuration → Templates
Click on Import to the right
Select the import file
Mark the required options in import rules
Click on Import

Note that before Zabbix 4.4.4, when a template is imported and updated, it can only be linked to additional templates and never be unlinked from any.

A success or failure message of the import will be displayed in the frontend.

Import rules:

Rule	Description
Update existing	Existing elements will be updated with data taken from the import file. Otherwise they will not be updated.
Create new	The import will add new elements using data from the import file. Otherwise it will not add them.
Delete missing	The import will remove existing elements not present in the import file. Otherwise it will not remove them. If Delete missing is marked for template linkage (only available since 4.4.4), existing template linkage not present in the import file will be removed from the template along with all entities inherited from the potentially unlinked templates (items, triggers, etc).
