Docs Connect Components Metrics influxdb influxdb Available in: Self-Managed Send metrics to InfluxDB 1.x using the /write endpoint. Introduced in version 3.36.0. Common Advanced # Common config fields, showing default values metrics: influxdb: url: "" # No default (required) db: "" # No default (required) mapping: "" # All config fields, showing default values metrics: influxdb: url: "" # No default (required) db: "" # No default (required) tls: enabled: false skip_cert_verify: false enable_renegotiation: false root_cas: "" root_cas_file: "" client_certs: [] username: "" password: "" include: runtime: "" debug_gc: "" interval: 1m ping_interval: 20s precision: s timeout: 5s tags: {} retention_policy: "" # No default (optional) write_consistency: "" # No default (optional) mapping: "" See https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/v1.8/tools/api/#write-http-endpoint for further details on the write API. Fields db The name of the database to use. Type: string include Optional additional metrics to collect, enabling these metrics may have some performance implications as it acquires a global semaphore and does stoptheworld(). Type: object include.debug_gc A duration string indicating how often to poll and collect GC metrics. Leave empty to disable this metric. Type: string Default: "" # Examples: debug_gc: 1m include.runtime A duration string indicating how often to poll and collect runtime metrics. Leave empty to disable this metric Type: string Default: "" # Examples: runtime: 1m interval A duration string indicating how often metrics should be flushed. Type: string Default: 1m password A password (when applicable). This field contains sensitive information that usually shouldn’t be added to a configuration directly. For more information, see Secrets. Type: string Default: "" ping_interval A duration string indicating how often to ping the host. Type: string Default: 20s precision [ns|us|ms|s] timestamp precision passed to write api. Type: string Default: s retention_policy Sets the retention policy for each write. Type: string tags Global tags added to each metric. Type: string Default: {} # Examples: tags: hostname: localhost zone: danger timeout How long to wait for response for both ping and writing metrics. Type: string Default: 5s tls Custom TLS settings can be used to override system defaults. Type: object tls.client_certs[] A list of client certificates to use. For each certificate either the fields cert and key, or cert_file and key_file should be specified, but not both. Type: object Default: [] # Examples: client_certs: - cert: foo key: bar - cert_file: ./example.pem key_file: ./example.key tls.client_certs[].cert A plain text certificate to use. Type: string Default: "" tls.client_certs[].cert_file The path of a certificate to use. Type: string Default: "" tls.client_certs[].key A plain text certificate key to use. This field contains sensitive information that usually shouldn’t be added to a configuration directly. For more information, see Secrets. Type: string Default: "" tls.client_certs[].key_file The path of a certificate key to use. Type: string Default: "" tls.client_certs[].password A plain text password for when the private key is password encrypted in PKCS#1 or PKCS#8 format. The obsolete pbeWithMD5AndDES-CBC algorithm is not supported for the PKCS#8 format. Because the obsolete pbeWithMD5AndDES-CBC algorithm does not authenticate the ciphertext, it is vulnerable to padding oracle attacks that can let an attacker recover the plaintext. This field contains sensitive information that usually shouldn’t be added to a configuration directly. For more information, see Secrets. Type: string Default: "" # Examples: password: foo password: ${KEY_PASSWORD} tls.enable_renegotiation Whether to allow the remote server to repeatedly request renegotiation. Enable this option if you’re seeing the error message local error: tls: no renegotiation. Requires version 3.45.0 or later. Type: bool Default: false tls.enabled Whether custom TLS settings are enabled. Type: bool Default: false tls.root_cas An optional root certificate authority to use. This is a string, representing a certificate chain from the parent trusted root certificate, to possible intermediate signing certificates, to the host certificate. This field contains sensitive information that usually shouldn’t be added to a configuration directly. For more information, see Secrets. Type: string Default: "" # Examples: root_cas: |- -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- ... -----END CERTIFICATE----- tls.root_cas_file An optional path of a root certificate authority file to use. This is a file, often with a .pem extension, containing a certificate chain from the parent trusted root certificate, to possible intermediate signing certificates, to the host certificate. Type: string Default: "" # Examples: root_cas_file: ./root_cas.pem tls.skip_cert_verify Whether to skip server side certificate verification. Type: bool Default: false url A URL of the format [https|http|udp]://host:port to the InfluxDB host. Type: string username A username (when applicable). Type: string Default: "" write_consistency [any|one|quorum|all] sets write consistency when available.
