Hi Marco,

You can use the following API-Calls to change the vertical scaling of one channel of one sensor, so for four channels you will have to run these queries four times.

set axis-mode to manual

/api/setobjectproperty.htm?id=<SENSORID>&subid=<CHANNELID>&subtype=channel&name=axismode&value=1

Set axis max to 80 Mbit (unit in the url is byte)

/api/setobjectproperty.htm?id=<SENSORID>&subid=<CHANNELID>&subtype=channel&name=axismax&value=10000000

Set axis min 80 Mbit (unit in the url is byte)

/api/setobjectproperty.htm?id=<SENSORID>&subid=<CHANNELID>&subtype=channel&name=axismin&value=1000000

Hi there,

Please elaborate more detailed what information of the channels you want to update as it is not quite clear what information you are referring to. :)

I would like to change all channels of a snmp-traffic-sensor and set the scaling of the vertical axis over the HTTP API.

Hi Marco,

You can look at the API documentation within your PRTG Installation for additional calls:

/api.htm?tabid=1.

Hi,

You can see the full documentation by clicking through the different taps, Object Manipulation is documented under "/api.htm?tabid=6".
