Hi PRTG,

We would like to have a report (csv, html, xml, doesn't matter) of all sensors with status down in a given period (eg last week). I suppose something like a table / matrix with all sensors that went down last week including the number of times the sensor changed to Down. I can't imagine this feature is not available on PRTG. But I can't find it...

Please help!

Sorry, a report filtered on the state(s) of sensors is not possible. But normal reports with data-tables have a part called "Sensor Status History" so you can see for the sensors when a sensor was down/up/etc.. Otherwise maybe the solution of the following article helps: https://kb.paessler.com/knowledgebase/en/topic/7823-how-can-i-create-a-report-about-the-notifications-alarms-and-downtime-of-a-sensor

is this still not possible? i have a request to do reports on down status every night, people want a mail that contains a summary of certain groups down status from the last night. is this doable?

I'm afraid the situation is indeed still the same, also due to the very few requests we have received over the course of the last years (you can see this post is over 3 years old, without further reactions to it).

so there is no way i can achieve this?

With the above mentioned workaround, there is an easy way as soon as you setup the trigger. Otherwise indeed such a report cannot be obtained directly from PRTG as of now.

+1 on needing this ability built-in to a default installation without having to jump through hoops to hack it together.

I too would welcome a report like this.

I'm not sure why this wouldn't be possible. I took have been asked to produce reports of down sensors. The ability to produce a report of which sensors went down during a certain time period would be quite valuable (24 hours, 1 week, 1 month, etc.).

+1 We also need these kind of reports.

+1 for this. I would imagine this is a frequently needed report for many customers. Very surprised this is not already available.

+1. This report would be very helpful

Much needed feature. It would be great to go to a sensor, Log tab, and then just have the possibility to download the table (excel, csv etc.) so one can apply then the needed filtering or computations... bye

+1 Want this feature also and dont understand why it is not by default on the tool a summary of down sensores during the last hour/day/week/month is standard request by teams..


Aug, 2021 - Permalink

+1 for this feature.


Oct, 2021 - Permalink

+1 it doesn't make any sense that this isn't possible, this is one of the very reasons a network monitoring tool exists
