Incorrect method "hostgroup.exists".

I faced issue, when try to create hosts and add them to Zabbix server.

Error:

An exception occurred during task execution. To see the full traceback, use -vvv. The error was: zabbix_api.ZabbixAPIException: (u'Error -32602: Invalid params., Incorrect method "hostgroup.exists". while sending {"params": {"name": "Dev Group"}, "jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "hostgroup.exists", "auth": "f4de56b26a4c322b22f392fb5c6b69f0", "id": 2}', -32602) fatal: [xx.xxx.xxx.xxx -> localhost]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "failed": true, "parsed": false}
