How to export realtime sensor status data to XML

Votes:

0

We would like to export realtime sensor status information from PRTG to XML in realtime. For example, when a sensor's/sensors' status changes (up or down), we would like to get that statıs change directly to XML. Our purpose is to integrate the sensor status information that we get from PRTG to another third-party software that we use currently.

Hi there,

You can use the "Execute HTTP Action" in a notification to send data via POST to an external application:

You can find all placeholders on the following site:

Best regards.

Hi Dariusz,

First of all, thank you for your quick response. We specifically want to have an XML file or SOAP at the end. When we use "Execute HTTP Action", does it provide us such formats?

Bests,

Hi there,

As described, you can define everything in the POST data of the request. So you can enter your SOAP/XML format as desired.
