Is there a way to export devices and their sensors into an Excel-supported format (like CSV) or a uniformly formatted plain text file?


The only way to create such list would be the PRTG API. The documentation and also a query builder for API calls can be found at http(s):YOUR_PRTG_SERVER/api.htm. There please switch to tab Live Data. You should find everything needed there.

To export more than 500 lines add a

&count=XXXX

parameter to the URL. With this you can adjust the number of returned results. For example 1000 there will return 1000 results.

Steps to extract the sensor list into excel for audit purposes based on tag name:

  1. Open the CSV file with Excel
  2. Mark the first column
  3. Click "Data" > "Text to Columns"
  4. Next
  5. Choose the needed Delimiters
