We are creating an integration between our monitoring tool (Zabbix) and the Commvault API, to have backup alerts centralized in a single location (Zabbix).

Using the documentation, they are doing a GET to the Commvault API.

And the return brings all the historical events, an immense list. We need the query to return only the events that are currently “problematic”.

Is there some kind of query within the API that only returns problem events that are currently occurring? Or some other way to centrally show, in Zabbix, the events and problems of Commvault?

If you check the link that you pasted yourself than you should have seen that the get events allows the passing of a view parameters. Notice the fromTime/toTime and the show* filters allowing you to retreieve only critical events.
