Verified usage

Verified import paths — ran on the pinned version, not inferred.

ZabbixAPI
✓ from pyzabbix import ZabbixAPI
✗ from py_zabbix import ZabbixAPI

Debug
Known issues
gotchaPackage name on PyPI has a hyphen (py-zabbix), but Python import uses underscore (pyzabbix).
fix
Use 'from pyzabbix import ...' (no hyphen).
affects: all
deprecatedLogin method ZabbixAPI.login() accepts username and password in plain text; API tokens not natively supported in older versions.
fix
Use ZabbixAPI(token='...') constructor parameter if available (v1.1.7+).
affects: <1.1.7
gotchaZabbixSender must have correct chunk_size for large data. Default may cause errors.
fix
Explicitly set chunk_size when creating ZabbixSender object.
affects: >=1.1.3
