Since I can't find them on the web I assume they can be purchased from Tektronix for a truckload of money or stuck writing your own but I don't even see an SDK so probably not even possible without reverse engineering.
I would like to be proven wrong.
(there is a 3rd party SPI decoder for the TLA600 though)

The official Tektronix SPI and I2C support packs are in the file section of Groups.IO Forum.

Do you have specific links to the files? I'm not aware that Tektronix ever had official support packs for SPI and I2C.

Link. You need to register first.
They were listed on Tektronix Support Pack Spreadsheet.

If you attach 32 logic analyser probes to a system for anything other than monitoring the 32 bit values on a 32 bit bus, you really need to rethink your approach. There aren't many places where we see a simple parallel 32 bit bus outside a die these days. That's why a 1970s logic analyser tended to be much wider than a modern one.

Well, the trigger abilities of these logic analysers are far superior compared to anything you'll find on a USB logic analyser or oscilloscope. I'm not using my logic analyser often, but when I do it saves lots of time.

They only have these support packs for the TLA700 not for the TLA5000 series
