I have an XML document with a list of devices which are known to PRTG and some data about them.

For instance, this XPath query works fine: Node *[node_name='ORP020']loss_avg

and returns the value 3.389831e-03.

I would love to replace the node_name string 'ORP020' with a PRTG placeholder like %device as then it would be much easier to clone this sensor.

Is this possible? I have tried it and it does not seem to work.

Hello,

thank you very much for your KB-Post. I'm very sorry, but such placeholders are not possible with this sensor.

best regards.
