Show System Status in Device Dashboard from external Monitoring system like PRTG

In the Dashboard of an Device / Object it would be awesome to show the live status of the system provided from an monitoring system like PRTG.
So an administrator gets a direct view of the system status without the need to have a separate look at the monitoring system, when administration servers.




In special PRTG provides an huge api with connections to sensor data, aswell as graphs - which could be embedded in Remote Desktop Manager. It's documented here:

https://www.paessler.com/manuals/prtg/application_programming_interface_api_definition






















Maybe this is also possible with an already included function? If not, it would be awesome to have some guys of you thought about it ;-)

Kind regards,
Constantin

Hello,
Do you know if could embed an url with the details instead of doing an integration?

Unfortunately not. The URL always contains a UID like device.htm?Id=18357 and the call requires authentication.

While with Check_MK it would be possible to integrate in several ways:

With an url of the service overview of one host: https://checkmkcheck_mk/view.py?deployment_last_contact_from=&deployment_last_contact_until=&deployment_last_download_from=&deployment_last_download_until=&deployment_last_registered_from=&deployment_last_registered_until=&filled_in=filter&host=HOSTNAME&host_last_check_from=&host_last_check_until=&host_last_state_change_from=&host_last_state_change_until=&selection=b735fecc-4cbe-40ec-86b8-b4329d46069d&svc_last_check_from=&svc_last_check_until=&svc_last_state_change_from=&svc_last_state_change_until=&view_name=host

undefined

The same data could also be fetched as json with &output_format=json

Hello,

Thank you for contacting us on that matter!

To achieve something similar, I would recommend the use of the "Home Page" in the properties of your entries:
undefined

In this section, it is possible to add an URL that will be shown in the "Overview" tab of your Dashboard when this entry is selected:
undefined

I hope that helps!

Best regards,

James Lafleur
