Deterministic API Token when creating new user

Hey folks

We have the following use case: 50+ single hypervisors spread worldwide (so 50 single host clusters). We have to setup monitoring account on each box - with ideally the same API Token.
We monitor the hosts with Zabbix so having one token / one user PER host is not scalable for the amount of hosts we have.
We automate the whole lifecycle of the hosts with ansible, so we do NOT use the GUI at all for configuration.
We cannot cluster the hosts due to their geographical locations.

I would like to know if there is a way to create a single token for an user, an re-use that same token for all of our hosts.
In other words, can we make that token "deterministic" - for the same user on each box.

Cheers,
