Conversation
Low-code plugin for the PRTG v1 HTTP API, indexing probes, groups, devices and sensors, with ten data streams and six out-of-the-box dashboards (estate overview, sites, and a perspective per object type). Notes on a few non-obvious choices, all confirmed against a live PRTG 26.3 instance: - Reads the `_raw` variant of every text column. PRTG's display columns carry markup — `message` is `<div class="status">OK</div>`, `lastcheck` appends `<span class="percent">[165 s ago]</span>`. - `table.json` OLE datetimes are UTC, so they convert directly. `historicdata.json` reports only server-local wall-clock text with no UTC equivalent, which is why the PRTG time zone is configurable and why that stream needs a post-request script. - `content=channels` HTML-escapes `lastvalue` where `content=sensors` does not, so only Sensor Channels decodes entities. - Sensor History averages hourly beyond seven days. Measured at the 5-minute default, a 30-day range on a nine-channel sensor unpivots to roughly 7 MB and exceeds the response size limit. - Sensor counts come back as empty strings rather than zero, hence the `Number(x) || 0` guards in System Status.

Inline comments:
In @.github/CODEOWNERS:
- Line 17: Update the PRTG CODEOWNERS pattern from plugins/PRTG/* to
/plugins/PRTG/ so `@Deenk` owns files recursively under the entire PRTG plugin
directory.
In `@plugins/PRTG/v1/dataStreams/logs.json`:
- Around line 48-55: Update the time computed field’s valueExpression to
interpret datetime_raw in the configured serverTimeZone before converting it to
ISO 8601, while preserving the existing OLE epoch offset and null handling for
nonpositive values. Keep the change scoped to the time conversion and align its
zone handling with filter_dstart and filter_dend.
In `@plugins/PRTG/v1/dataStreams/probes.json`:
- Around line 99-103: Update the statusText mapping in
plugins/PRTG/v1/dataStreams/probes.json lines 99-103, groups.json lines 110-114,
devices.json lines 116-120, sensors.json lines 121-125, containerDevices.json
lines 128-132, and containerSensors.json lines 134-138 so status code 11 maps to
Not Licensed; add Not Licensed to unmonitored in each stream, then increment the
version in plugins/PRTG/v1/metadata.json.
In `@plugins/PRTG/v1/dataStreams/scripts/sensorHistory.js`:
- Around line 15-20: Update offsetAt to validate both the input instant and the
Date.parse result, returning null when either is non-finite; ensure
wallClockToUtc and parseWhen propagate or handle that null before calling
toISOString, preserving the existing successful conversion path.
- Around line 15-20: The locale-dependent date/time parsing must be replaced at
both sites. In plugins/PRTG/v1/dataStreams/scripts/sensorHistory.js lines 15-20,
update offsetAt to use Intl.DateTimeFormat.formatToParts for explicit date and
time components, and return null when the computed offset is non-finite so
parseWhen remains safe. In plugins/PRTG/v1/dataStreams/sensorHistory.json lines
22-29, construct sdate and edate as YYYY-MM-DD-HH-mm-ss from explicit formatted
parts instead of replace-based parsing.
- Around line 50-54: Update parseCoverage to preserve numeric zero by removing
the raw || '' fallback before string conversion; retain the existing percent
stripping, trimming, and null return for non-numeric values.
- Around line 12-13: Update the serverTimeZone interpolation in the TIME_ZONE
initialization to JavaScript-escape or serialize the resolved timezone value
before embedding it in the string literal, preventing quote-based script
injection while retaining the UTC fallback.
- Around line 31-48: Update parseWhen to prefer datetime_raw and convert its
OLE/Excel serial value using the existing logs.json conversion expression, while
retaining timezone handling. When datetime_raw is absent, parse datetime
explicitly according to the configured PRTG account format with component
validation rather than using new Date(start); also exclude datetime_raw and
coverage_raw from the channel iteration so they are not emitted as channels.
In `@plugins/PRTG/v1/dataStreams/sensorHistory.json`:
- Around line 104-111: Update the defaultTimeframe configuration in the sensor
history stream to use one of the supported timeframes listed in timeframes,
rather than dashboard; choose the appropriate supported default without changing
the existing timeframes list.
In `@plugins/PRTG/v1/docs/README.md`:
- Line 31: Update the authentication documentation around the API key entry and
the referenced authentication guidance so it describes API-key query-parameter
usage as this plugin’s constraint, without claiming that PRTG’s v1 API rejects
Bearer or username/passhash authentication.
In `@plugins/PRTG/v1/indexDefinitions/default.json`:
- Around line 12-98: Rename the indexed source type values in
plugins/PRTG/v1/indexDefinitions/default.json (lines 12-98) from PRTG-prefixed
names to the corresponding unprefixed PRTG object terms, including Probe, Group,
Device, and Sensor. Apply the same renamed values to every sourceType in
plugins/PRTG/v1/custom_types.json (lines 3-29) and every matches.sourceType in
plugins/PRTG/v1/scopes.json (lines 3-48), keeping all contracts consistent.

Correctness fixes:
- Map PRTG status code 11 to "Not Licensed" across all six object streams,
and drop "Paused by License" from the unmonitored state maps -- PRTG never
returns that string.
- Parse the historic-data `datetime` string explicitly instead of relying on
`new Date()`, which rejects PRTG's European format ("04.12.2017 16:35:08")
and resolves the others against the host time zone rather than PRTG's.
- Report a genuine 0% coverage as 0 rather than null.
Robustness:
- Build the PRTG date strings from Intl.DateTimeFormat.formatToParts in
sensorHistory.js, sensorHistory.json and logs.json, so nothing depends on
how a given ICU build separates the date from the time.
- Return null from offsetAt when the parts are not numeric, and propagate
that, so `new Date(NaN).toISOString()` is unreachable.
- Strip everything outside the IANA character set from the interpolated time
zone, so a quote in a custom value cannot inject into the request script.
- Clamp the Sensor History window to 30 days, so a tile following a longer
dashboard timeframe returns the most recent 30 days instead of asking PRTG
for a range it cannot serve within the response cap.
Conventions:
- Rename source types to unprefixed upstream terms (Probe, Group, Device,
Sensor) per REVIEW.md. Display text is unchanged.
- Move scopes.json to defaultContent/, where the other 30 plugins and the
authoring docs put it.
- Use a recursive CODEOWNERS pattern for the plugin directory.
Documentation:
- Reword the authentication notes. PRTG's manual documents
`Authorization: Bearer`, but 26.3.122.1665 answers 401 "Unsupported
authorization scheme" to that, to `Authorization: apitoken` and to
`X-Api-Key`, leaving the apitoken query parameter as the only scheme that
works.
Verified against PRTG 26.3.122.1665 with the account time zone at UTC+1.
`table.json` raw datetimes are confirmed UTC, so the log conversion is
unchanged. `datetime_raw` is not usable in historicdata.json: it is only
returned when `usecaption` is omitted, which collapses every channel into a
single unnamed column, and it carries the bucket end rather than its start.

PRTG still has no per-request override (Paessler confirm this), so there's no parameter for UTC. The plugin no longer depends on the zone, though. As of eed3b80 the time zone setting is gone. filter_dstart/filter_dend are sent widened by −12h/+14h, which covers every real UTC offset, and logs.js trims the results back to the exact timeframe using datetime_raw, which PRTG always reports as UTC. Sensor History does the same with Date Time(RAW) from historicdata.csv. The line this thread is pinned to hasn't changed, which is why GitHub doesn't show it as outdated. The value under it is new.

I think we should look to use the v2 API here... otherwise this will likely become out of date very quickly.
Important: The PRTG API v2 is not yet feature-complete. Most endpoints are stable and you can use them in production, with the exception of endpoints marked as experimental or deprecated. Experimental endpoints are subject to change, so use them with caution. For more information, see the section Endpoint maturity.
ℹ️ If you cannot achieve your objective with the PRTG API v2, you can try the PRTG API (v1). For more information, see the PRTG Manual: HTTP API.

Think I mentioned this elsewhere at some point, but from what I can tell many v2 endpoints are still not in GA and are subject to changes as per the PRTG docs.
PRTG's v1 API interprets `filter_dstart`/`filter_dend` in the time zone of the account whose API key is in use and offers no UTC option, so the zone has to be configured. Until now a wrong answer failed silently: Log and Sensor History shifted by the difference, or looked empty on a short timeframe, with nothing to point at the cause. `getstatus.htm` reports the account's zone as a fixed offset in `UserTimeZone`, which System Status already surfaces. Too coarse to replace the setting — Sensor History spans 30 days and needs the daylight saving transitions an IANA name carries — but enough to check it against. Adds a hidden `timeZoneCheck` stream and a non-blocking Time zone step in configValidation. Two things worth knowing about the comparison: - It accepts the zone's current offset *or* its standard one. PRTG labels zones by standard offset in its own UI, so which of the two `UserTimeZone` carries is unknown. Accepting both still catches a zone picked on the wrong continent without crying wolf every summer. - A `UserTimeZone` it cannot parse passes rather than warns — a PRTG version that words the field differently must not fail setup. A bad IANA name is compared as UTC, because that is what the request side falls back to sending. The step returns one row on agreement and none on mismatch because `errorOnEmptyResults` can only fail a step on empty. It is `required: false` so a false positive cannot block anyone from connecting. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

Answers the review question on whether this should target PRTG API v2. Checked against the published API v2 OpenAPI specification: v2 has no log endpoint, no arbitrary historic-data range, and no time zone endpoint, so the Log and Sensor History streams and the setup time zone check could not be built on it. What remains is marked experimental, and v2 is unavailable on Hosted Monitor and off by default on existing installations. Records the conditions under which a v2-based plugin becomes worth having, as a new major version rather than a change to this one. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
The API v1 time zone is a property of the PRTG account the key belongs to, not of the request — Paessler document no per-request override. Cite that, and note API v2 has no time zone endpoint either. Because the zone follows the account, pointing the key at a dedicated PRTG account set to UTC removes the problem entirely, daylight saving included. That was not written down anywhere; add it to Setup, worded so it does not read as contradicting the advice to pick a region rather than an offset. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
The icon was the stacked "PRTG / NETWORK / MONITOR" lockup. Each text line was only about 63px tall inside the 512 canvas, so at tile size the words rendered around 4px tall and read as a smudge. Drop the three wordmark paths and rescale the four gauge-arc paths, which were already in the file, to fill the square. Keep the white plate: it is the convention for the other 512-viewBox icons here, and the needle is navy, so it would disappear on a dark tile without one.

@Deenk Closing as stale - feel free to re-open once you've reworked it etc. |
The object streams fetched `count=50000` in a single request with
`paging: { mode: "none" }`. That is the stopgap 4aff6af called out on
NinjaOne — it works until an estate outgrows one response, then fails
whole rather than degrading, and it cannot be tuned per installation.
`table.json` takes `start` as a row offset alongside `count`, which maps
onto the platform's row-offset paging directly. Row counting reads back
through `payloadArraySize` on the same path as `pathToData`, so a short
page ends the run — no dependence on `treesize`, which is honest for the
object tables but a placeholder `1000000` for `content=messages`.
All six paged streams already sorted by `objid`. That matters more than it
looks: offset paging over an unstable order silently skips and repeats
rows.
`sensorChannels` keeps `mode: "none"`. A sensor's channel count is bounded
small and the endpoint has no stable sort to page over, so the machinery
would add risk for nothing — its `count=50000` is dropped in favour of
PRTG's own default. `logs` is left alone too: it is capped at 5,000
newest-first with no usable total, which is a different problem.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The "Why this plugin uses API v1" section was written to answer a review
question, so its accuracy is the whole point of it. Three claims did not
survive checking against the published OpenAPI specification:
- Object listing does not need one request per type. `GET
/experimental/objects` returns probes, groups, devices, sensors and
channels from one paged endpoint, and its `filter` takes `parentid`
plus `children`/`descendants`/`ancestors`. 3,000 is a per-request page
size with RFC 5988 `Link` headers, not a ceiling. This is better than
API v1, not worse.
- Arbitrary historic ranges do exist, via `from`/`to` on
`/experimental/timeseries/{id}`. That endpoint is deprecated and slated
for removal, and neither form has an averaging control — which is the
real objection, and a narrower one than "no arbitrary range".
- `/experimental/channels` is experimental but not deprecated. The
`deprecated` markers in that block sit on its `filter` and `sort_by`
parameters.
Drops the time zone row entirely. It listed the absence of a time zone
endpoint as an API v2 gap, when API v2 returns ISO 8601 in UTC throughout
and would remove this plugin's time zone setting altogether. Presenting
an advantage as a deficiency was the least defensible line in the
section, and the Known limitations note that echoed it is corrected too.
Reorders the three reasons to lead with deployment reach — no Hosted
Monitor, no clusters, administrator opt-in below 25.2.106 — because that
is the one that actually binds a single-base-URL low-code plugin, and
the endpoint table was carrying an argument it cannot support alone. Also
states Paessler's stated intent to retire API v1 eventually, rather than
leaving "no announced end of life" to be read as spin.
Names the tested build in the compatibility callout, and rewrites the
response-size limitation now that the object tables page.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Three unrelated bits of drift, none behavioural: - `PRTG` and `Paessler` were added to the root `cspell.json`. AGENTS.md documents the per-plugin list as the place for product names the root list does not cover, and eleven plugins already do that, so they move to `plugins/PRTG/v1/cspell.json` and the root file returns to matching `main`. - The CODEOWNERS entry was `/plugins/PRTG/`, the only one of 26 with leading and trailing slashes. Recursive ownership is arguably the better pattern, but it is a repo-wide question rather than a PRTG one, so match the surrounding `plugins/X/*` form instead of being the exception. - The `edate` expression in `sensorHistory.json` declared `MAX` and `start` and used neither, copied from `sdate` where the 30-day clamp genuinely applies. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
…f ending table.json's start parameter returns the last page again once it runs past the end, so row-offset paging never terminated. Page with filter_objid=@above(<last objid>) instead, which returns nothing once no rows remain. The scripts also rebuild status from status_raw, because the status text varies by PRTG version. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
…ates PRTG reads date ranges in the API account's time zone. Log and Sensor History now widen each request by 12 hours before and 14 hours after, then trim the results using the UTC OLE _raw dates. Sensor History reads historicdata.csv, the only form that carries both the channel names and Date Time(RAW). This removes the time zone field, its save-time check and the timeZoneCheck stream.

…by device ID The Sensors Needing Attention tables filtered only statusText != Up, so deliberately paused sensors (codes 7, 8, 9, 12) were listed. Exclude Paused as well on the overview, probe and group dashboards. Sensors per Device grouped on the device display name, merging devices that share a name such as each probe's "Probe Device". Add a hidden computed deviceLabel column (name plus device ID) to both sensor streams and group the chart on it. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Only the CSV (and XML) form carries both the channel names andDate Time(RAW). The JSON form either names every channelvalueor drops the raw date.Date Time(RAW)is the bucket end for averaged data, so the script subtracts the interval to plot the bucket start.filter_objid=@above(<last objid>), notstart. PRTG'sstartclamps to the last page once it passes the end, so offset paging never terminates. The root group (objid 0) is now filtered out in the script, not with a staticfilter_objidargument.status_raw, because PRTG's display text varies by version (for example "Paused (paused by user)").UserTimeZoneas Account Time Zone, because it is the API key's account zone, not the server's.🖼️ Plugin screenshots

Tested against PRTG Hosted Monitor 26.3.122.1665 (trial, one hosted probe, 42 sensors). The API account's zone is "GMT Standard Time", which runs at UTC+1 during BST, so any time zone mistake would show up as a clean one-hour shift.
