Dear Peter,
Yes, your assumption is correct. The corresponding kb-article describes a way to trigger an auto-acknowledgement for 'down' sensors - or in your case to pause an alarm with
http://your-prtg-server/api/pause.htm?id=%sensorid&action=0&username=myuser&password=mypassword
instead of
http://<your_prtg_server>/api/acknowledgealarm.htm?id=%sensorid&ackmsg=Auto-Acknowledged&username=myusername&passhash=12345678

Dear Peter,
Thank you for your kb-post.
Please refer to this article on how to auto-acknowledge an alarm and use the following code instead to auto-pause it.
/api/pause.htm?id=%sensorid&action=0

Dear Sebastian,
i follow your instructions and create a notification Profile and a testsensor. Is it right, that such a sensor will paused in case of "error" status?
Best, Peter
