Configuration

Option Description Type Default
url InfluxDB URL to connect to (ex. https://localhost:8086). String https://localhost:8086
token Access Token used for authenticating/authorizing the InfluxDB request sent by client. String
use_ssl Turn on/off SSL for HTTP communication. bool true
verify_mode Sets the flags for the certification verification at beginning of SSL/TLS session. "#{OpenSSL::SSL::VERIFY_NONE}" or "#{OpenSSL::SSL::VERIFY_PEER}" none
bucket Specifies the destination bucket for writes. String
org Specifies the destination organization for writes. String
measurement The name of the measurement. If not specified, Fluentd's tag is used. String nil
tag_keys The list of record keys that are stored in InfluxDB as 'tag'. Array []
tag_fluentd Specifies if the Fluentd's event tag is included into InfluxDB tags (ex. 'fluentd=system.logs'). bool false
field_keys The list of record keys that are stored in InfluxDB as 'field'. If it's not specified than as fields are used all record keys. Array []
field_cast_to_float Turn on/off auto casting Integer value to Float. Helper to avoid mismatch error: 'series type mismatch: already Integer but got Float'. bool false
time_precision The time precision of timestamp. You should specify either second (s), millisecond (ms), microsecond (us), or nanosecond (ns). String ns
time_key A name of the record key that used as a 'timestamp' instead of event timestamp. If a record key doesn't exists or hasn't value then is used event timestamp. String nil
line_protocol_key A name of the record key that contains LineProtocol. The value of this key is used for ingesting data into InfluxDB. If a record key doesn't exists or hasn't value then is used event timestamp. String nil
