Hello there, thank you for your post.
You can find some information on the following standard sensors (Located on your Probe device) :
You can poll the readings from these sensors with the API:
| /api/table.xml?content=channels&output=xml&columns=name,lastvalue_&id=%%SENSORID%% |
You can also use /api/table.xml?content= to check the count of the following objects, by checking the value of "totalcound=" in the XML result:
- content=groups
- content=devices
- content=sensors
- content=reports
- content=maps
- content=tickets
It's also possible to monitor the summary of sensors by status:

However, some of the values displayed in PRTG Status can currently not be polled or seen anywhere but the status page. For example the "Activity History".
We may add a PRTG Statistics sensor at some point and move these metrics (scans, state changes, page views and etc) to this specific sensor. This would allow you to poll these metrics via the /api/table.xml?content=channels call as well. However, there's no ETA or estimate of when this will be done.
