Choices: 
no ← yes    Sort hosts alphabetically. If there are numbers in hostnames, leading zero should be used.      state  string    
Choices: absent 
present ←    
present - Create a screen if it doesn't exist. If the screen already exists, the screen will be updated as needed. 
absent - If a screen exists, the screen will be deleted.     server_url  string / required      URL of Zabbix server, with protocol (http or https). url is an alias for server_url.

Notes  Note  Too many concurrent updates to the same screen may cause Zabbix to return errors, see examples for a workaround if needed. If you use login_password=zabbix, the word “zabbix” is replaced by “****” in all module output, because login_password uses no_log. See this FAQ for more information.
