Votes:

2

When I use the following URL to access the API I don't get all my sensors.

http://myprtgserver/api/table.xml?content=sensors&columns=objid,group,device,sensor,status,message,lastvalue&username=xyz&password=xyz

I have more than 800 sensors.

api prtg xml

The default limit of items per XML/API call is 500.

If you want to have more than 500 items add a count=xxx parameter with enough room for all sensors, e.g.

&count=1000
