Hi there,

Unfortunately, it is not possible to create sensors/devices via the API of PRTG. You can just clone already available sensors/devices/groups. You can find the documentation about how to clone objects via the API and how to change the settings of the cloned objects in your webinterface under "Setup > PRTG API > Object Manipulation".

Best regards.

Hello again.

Have a python code that configure a router cisco and work fine, but i don't know how call this code from prtg when a volumen traffic (threshold in kbps) is reached..

The question isn't how to configure a notificacion wich volumen.. because this now i know it. , the question is how call a archive.py from prtg..

Hi there,

You can do this in the notification settings (Setup > Account Settings > Notifications) under "Execute Program". This is also described on the following sites:
