[zabbix\_utils](https://github.com/zabbix/python-zabbix-utils/blob/main/README.md) is the official Python library for Zabbix.

With zabbix\_utils you can:

-   Use Zabbix API to manage Zabbix objects (create hosts, update items, get events, etc.).
-   Collect data from Zabbix agent (similarly to Zabbix get).
-   Send data to Zabbix server or proxy (similarly to Zabbix sender).

The library supports both synchronous and asynchronous script execution, allowing it to handle both simple workflows and large-scale parallel operations such as mass data collection, bulk exports, alert processing, and efficient system scaling.

The library is compatible with supported Zabbix server versions and modern Python releases.

To get started, [install](/devel/python/install) the library and then follow the [quickstart](/devel/python/quickstart) guide.
