Remove a Telegraf configuration
This page documents an earlier version of InfluxDB. InfluxDB v2.6 is the latest stable version. View this page in the v2.6 documentation.
Use the InfluxDB user interface (UI) or the influx CLI
to remove Telegraf configurations from InfluxDB.
Deleting a Telegraf configuration does not affect running Telegraf agents. However, if an agents stops, it needs a new configuration to start.
To remove a Telegraf configuration, do one of the following:
Use the InfluxDB UI
In the navigation menu on the left, select Data (Load Data) > Telegraf.
Hover over the configuration you want to delete, click the icon, and then click Delete.
Use the influx CLI
Use the influx telegrafs rm command
to remove a Telegraf configuration from InfluxDB.
Provide the following:
- Telegraf configuration ID (shown in the output of
influx telegrafs)
# Syntax
influx telegrafs rm -i <telegraf-config-id>
# Example
influx telegrafs rm -i 12ab34de56fg78hi
