How do i export the alarms as xls or csv?

Dear naderwahba,

Thank you very much for your KB-post.

When you navigate to the alarms/logs/sensor list, you will find a little link "XML" in the lower right corner of the list. If you click on that link, the system will automatically download the current view as XML-file.

If you want to have this as CSV-file for Excel as well, you have to do a little "trick":

1. Please right-click the XML-link
2. Choose "Save Link Address"
3. Open a new browser tab and paste the copied URL - but please do not press enter afterwards, just paste the URL
4. Please edit the pasted URL as follows:
   from <Your Core Server>/api/table.xml?content=messages......
   to <Your Core Server>/api/table.csv?content=messages......

Remember that it will require authentication for each API call, with &username=XXX&password/passhas=YYY

The complete call could also look like this:

https://<YourCoreServer>/api/table.csv?id=0&content=sensors&columns=objid,message,status&count=*&filter_status=5&username=prtgadmin&password=prtgadmin

1. Once you have done this, please press enter-key and you will receiver a CSV-file of the current view.
2. Please open the CSV-file in a text-editor (I suggest notepad++)
3. Please enter a new line with the following string "sep=," (without " "). Please save the file afterwards
4. At the end, you can open the CSV-File in MS Excel and et voilà .. a CSV-export.

Kind regards,
Sven
