Write data to InfluxDB
Collect and write time series data to InfluxDB Cloud and InfluxDB OSS.
influx write
The influx write
command writes data to InfluxDB via stdin or from a specified file. Write data using line protocol, annotated CSV, or extended annotated CSV.
influx write dryrun
The influx write dryrun
command prints write output to stdout instead of writing to InfluxDB. Use this command to test writing data.
Line protocol
InfluxDB uses line protocol to write data points. It is a text-based format that provides the measurement, tag set, field set, and timestamp of a data point.
InfluxDB 1.x compatibility API
The InfluxDB v2 API includes InfluxDB 1.x compatibility endpoints that work with InfluxDB 1.x client libraries and third-party integrations like Grafana and others.
Extended annotated CSV
Extended annotated CSV provides additional annotations and options that specify how CSV data should be converted to line protocol and written to InfluxDB.
Optimize writes to InfluxDB
Simple tips to optimize performance and system overhead when writing data to InfluxDB.
Handle duplicate data points
InfluxDB identifies unique data points by their measurement, tag set, and timestamp. This article discusses methods for preserving data from two points with a common measurement, tag set, and timestamp but a different field set.
/write 1.x compatibility API
The /write
1.x compatibility endpoint writes data to InfluxDB Cloud and InfluxDB OSS 2.0 using patterns from the InfluxDB 1.x /write
API endpoint.
