Hi,
id like to track changes for valus shown on the status page. Like Database objects and so on. Can this values be read from somewhere except the status page?

Hello there, thank you for your post.
You can find some information on the following standard sensors (Located on your Probe device) :
You can poll the readings from these sensors with the API:
| /api/table.xml?content=channels&output=xml&columns=name,lastvalue_&id=%%SENSORID%% |
You can also use /api/table.xml?content= to check the count of the following objects, by checking the value of "totalcound=" in the XML result:
- content=groups
- content=devices
- content=sensors
- content=reports
- content=maps
- content=tickets
It's also possible to monitor the summary of sensors by status:
- Can I create a sensor to monitor the number of paused or unknown sensors?
- How can I monitor the number of sensors in a specific group?
However, some of the values displayed in PRTG Status can currently not be polled or seen anywhere but the status page. For example the "Activity History".
We may add a PRTG Statistics sensor at some point and move these metrics (scans, state changes, page views and etc) to this specific sensor. This would allow you to poll these metrics via the /api/table.xml?content=channels call as well. However, there's no ETA or estimate of when this will be done.
Best Regards,
