Is there a way to export a list of devices from PRTG, including their hierarchy (Probe, Group, Sub-Group, Device)?


To export a list of the devices configured, you can use the following API call:

 https://PRTGSERVER/api/table.csv?content=devices&columns=objid,name,host,group,probe,parentid&count=*&username=PRTGUSER&passhash=PASSHASH

Please, replace the information according to your configuration. You will find your passhash in Setup | Account Settings | My Account ("/myaccount.htm?tabid=1") by clicking on the corresponding button.


You can also generate a list with the XML format by using table.csv in the request above.

Here are the other information you can get as well:


favorite,condition,upsens,downsens,downacksens,partialdownsens,warnsens,pausedsens,unusualsens,undefinedsens,totalsens,schedule,basetype,baselink,notifiesx,intervalx,access,dependency,position,status,comments,priority,message,tags,type,active

Finally, I just want to notice that it's not possible to get the entire hierarchy of the device. The information returned by Group is only the name of the parent group, parent_id also return the id of the parent group (not above).
