Try to transform json alphanumric answer into numeric valur wit REST API Beta V2

Votes:

0

Dear all,

I try to transform an API json formated alphanumeric answer to a numeric value with your Beta Rest Api V2. The error is "Succeeded Unparseable value in channel 1. The conversion of a string to a number failed. invalid stoll argument".

I think ovl files are unusable because it concern xml only.

For channel 1, I use :

Channel #1 JSONPath/XPath : $.data..currentBackupTaskInfo.taskStatus

Result is : "Succeeded"

How can I transform it ?

Thanks

Hello,

Within the settings of the sensor you can activate the "Store Result" option. This will create logs files (Result of Sensor XXX.Data.txt and Result of Sensor XXX.txt) on the corresponding probe under "C:\ProgramData\Paessler\PRTG Network Monitor\Logs\sensors" afterwards which might help. If you want us to take a closer look, feel free to send us those, as well as screenshots of the issue you are facing, and the used XML to [email protected]
