TOPIC about_PrtgAPI SHORT DESCRIPTION PrtgAPI is a C#/PowerShell library for interacting with the PRTG HTTP API. LONG DESCRIPTION PrtgAPI provides a series of methods and cmdlets that abstract away the complexity serializing and deserializing requests to and from the PRTG HTTP API. PrtgAPI enables the creation of scripts for customizing and standardizing PRTG Deployments. PrtgAPI cmdlets can be chained together for sophisticated object filtering, enabling object modification tasks to be performed against a select set of items. EXAMPLES Before you can interface with your PRTG server you must enter your server credentials Connect-PrtgServer prtg.example.com PrtgAPI saves your credentials under the current PowerShell session so that they may be used for all PrtgAPI cmdlets. A list of sensors present on your PRTG server can be retrieved with the Get-Sensor cmdlet Get-Sensor Objects can be retrieved matching specific search criteria, such as having a certain name Get-Device *fw* Fields not supported by PrtgAPI Cmdlets can often be filtered for via the New-SearchFilter cmdlet New-SearchFilter type contains deprecated | Get-Sensor Multiple cmdlets can be chained together Get-Probe *office* | Get-Device *dc* | Get-Sensor -Tags wmipagefilesensor | Remove-Object -Force SEE ALSO PrtgAPI Wiki: https://github.com/lordmilko/PrtgAPI/wiki Connect-PrtgServer Get-Sensor Get-Device Get-Group Get-Probe New-SearchFilter |
