Hey, our sensors get queried every 5 min. However, we want to change the interval, in which a sensor is queried, to 1 min. after it has reached an error state. When the sensor is in the state good again, the interval should be set up to 5 min again. Is this possible?
Lower the query inverval of a sensor after it was set do error

Hello,
Thank you for your message.
Regarding what you would like to achieve, I recommend to create a notification template to execute the API call below by using the method Execute HTTP action:
/api/scannow.htm?id=SensorID&username=PRTGUser&passhash=PasshashThen, you have the possibility to execute the template every minute by configuring the trigger like this:
When sensor state is Down for at least 60 seconds, perform ScanSensor and repeat every 1 minutes
If you have questions, let us know.
Regards.
