May 20, 2026 - PRTG Data Exporter 2026.5.20.610

Features

  • We introduce multi-agent support, allowing you to deploy lightweight worker agents on remote machines so that PRTG Data Exporter can collect data from PRTG servers that are not directly reachable from your main installation, for example, PRTG servers inside isolated company networks when Data Exporter is running in the cloud. Worker agents are installed and managed centrally from the Data Exporter web interface.
  • We added a status banner to all pages in PRTG Data Exporter that notifies you when a new version is available.
  • We added a data collection status panel to all Grafana status dashboards.
  • We now allow multiple PRTG servers with the same hostname to be added to PRTG Data Exporter. Each server is identified by its unique alias. This allows you to, for example, add several servers with the hostname 'localhost'.
  • We added a safeguard that prevents you from configuring multiple profiles that export data from the same PRTG server to the same target database, avoiding duplicate or conflicting data exports.
  • We improved how PRTG Data Exporter handles objects deleted from your PRTG installation. Deleted groups, devices, and sensors are now retained in the target database and marked as deleted.
  • We added a new tools.exe reset-password command that lets administrators recover access to Data Exporter when a password is lost.
  • We updated how timestamps are stored in target databases so that Grafana now displays data in the correct time for your time zone. The migration runs automatically in the background and existing data is preserved. Data collection continues as normal.


Changes

  • We updated PRTG Data Exporter to run on .NET 10 and refreshed all associated packages to their latest versions. This improves performance, security, and long-term support.
  • We updated the bundled PostgreSQL to the latest available PostgreSQL 17 minor release. Both new and existing local PostgreSQL installations managed by PRTG Data Exporter will be updated automatically.
  • We updated the Grafana API integration to support Grafana version 12 and 13.
  • We updated licensing to work across multiple agents in a multi-agent setup.
  • We removed the internal configuration database from the list of selectable target databases.


Bugfixes

  • We fixed an issue where PRTG Data Exporter failed to start on Windows systems with Hardware-enforced Stack Protection (CET Shadow Stack) enabled, resulting in an HTTP 502.5 error.
  • We fixed an issue where deleting a business process in PRTG Data Exporter did not remove it from Grafana.
  • We fixed an issue where renaming a component within a business process caused both the old and new component names to appear, resulting in duplicate entries.
  • We fixed an issue where the Probes Free Space panel in the Grafana Probes Health dashboard appeared empty after initial setup. The default Probes Health metrics filter was missing the diskspacesensor tag.
  • We fixed an issue where data collection could fail when parsing historic data from PRTG, caused by a summary row appended to the CSV response that had fewer columns than expected.


February 05, 2026 - PRTG Data Exporter 2026.1.22.503

Bugfixes

  • We fixed an issue where license activation could break unexpectedly, requiring manual reactivation to restore functionality. This occurred in specific scenarios during online license validation, particularly when multiple profiles with identical schedulers were running.


November 13, 2025 - PRTG Data Exporter 2025.11.12.376

Features

  • We added automatic license activation for online instances of PRTG Data Exporter.
  • We updated the offline activation process.

For more information on how to activate your license, see the PRTG Data Exporter manual.


Changes

  • We addressed the vulnerability in the ASP.NET Core. You can track this vulnerability in CVE-2025-55315. PRTG Data Exporter now requires as of .NET 9.0.10 or higher. 


Bugfixes

  • We fixed an edge-case issue where data collection failed to resume automatically, for example, after a server restart or a license key update.


August 14, 2025 - PRTG Data Exporter 2025.8.14.2

Important information: This update requires a clean installation of PRTG Data Exporter. Due to the nature of the changes in this version, you cannot install it over an existing PRTG Data Exporter installation. For more information, see the PRTG Data Exporter manual.


Features

  • You can now combine data from multiple PRTG servers into unified, customizable Grafana dashboards. This new feature enables you to create a high-level overview over multiple PRTG servers tailored to your specific needs. 

 

Changes

  • PRTG Data Exporter now comes as a web-based application instead of a desktop application.
  • PRTG Data Exporter now installs and uses PostgreSQL instead of Microsoft SQL Express to store its configuration.

 

Known issues

  • In some cases, for example after a server restart or after you change your license key, data collection might not resume automatically. To make sure it resumes, open Windows Task Manager and check that the services PRTG Data Exporter | Historic Data Polling Task and PRTG Data Exporter | Tree Data Polling Task are running. Start the services manually if needed.

July 2, 2024 - PRTG Data Exporter 2024.5.28.2

Features

  • We improved performance and significantly reduced the time required for collecting data by introducing parallel PRTG Historic Data request processing.
  • Added new options when you configure a PRTG server:
    • Degree of parallelism - specifies how many requests should be performed in parallel (default 2).
    • Batch size - specifies how many requests should be processed in a single batch (default 50).


Changes

  • Sensors saved in configuration and target databases now include the parent tags.
  • Optimizations to the historic data requests to avoid making unnecessary requests and retrieving already existing data.
  • The installer now uses ODBC Driver 18.
  • The SA user for the SQL Server installation now uses a stronger password.


Bugfixes

  • We fixed an issue where the PRTG server could not be added after initially specifying incorrect connection details.
  • We fixed an issue where the About page would send an error when checking for updates, and no content would be displayed.
  • We fixed an issue where TEMP tables were not being dropped from the Oracle DB after channel values were inserted.
