To test the the item, click on the Test button at the bottom of the item configuration form. The item testing form has fields for the required host parameters (host address, port, proxy name/no proxy). These fields host can also be used to test the preprocessing steps. In fact, the item testing form is an extension of the preprocessing testing form already known in recent Zabbix versions. So if previously you could

The values of these fields are pre-filled by the values of the corresponding What’s new in Zabbix 5.2.4 Testing preprocessing steps It is now possible to test item value preprocessing steps with an unsupported value. 16 This is useful for testing the Check for not supported
