In this chapter, we barely scratched the surface of what is possible once you begin playing with the powerful Zabbix API. If you worked through the examples, we can assume that you are comfortable with the JSON-RPC protocol, which is the foundation of the API. You should know how to explore the various methods and have some ideas on how to use them to make your Zabbix management tasks easier or to further expand the system's data manipulation possibilities.

With the discussion of the API, we conclude our exploration of Zabbix's features. The next and final chapter will build upon the knowledge you have gained until now and use it to make Zabbix a more integral part of your IT infrastructure by opening communication channels with other management systems.
