How can I read by using the API interface the compleet syslog message?

Or is there an other solution for exporting syslog data?

Hi there,

PRTG has no option to export Syslog or SNMP Trap Messages. Currently there are also no plans to implement such an option.

Best regards.

Hi there,

These can be opened for example by notepad, but they are not readable.

Best regards.
