Salesforce Input Plugin

This plugin gathers metrics about the limits in your Salesforce organization and the remaining usage using the limits endpoint of Salesforce’s REST API.

Introduced in: Telegraf v1.4.0 Tags: server, cloud OS support: all

Global configuration options

In addition to the plugin-specific configuration settings, plugins support additional global and plugin configuration settings. These settings are used to modify metrics, tags, and field or create aliases and configure ordering, etc. See the CONFIGURATION.md for more details.

Configuration

# Read API usage and limits for a Salesforce organisation
[[inputs.salesforce]]
  ## specify your credentials
  ##
  username = "your_username"
  password = "your_password"
  ##
  ## (optional) security token
  # security_token = "your_security_token"
  ##
  ## (optional) environment type (sandbox or production)
  ## default is: production
  ##
  # environment = "production"
  ##
  ## (optional) API version (default: "39.0")
  ##

Metrics

Salesforce provide one measurement named “salesforce”. Each entry is converted to snake_case and 2 fields are created.

  • <key>_max represents the limit threshold

  • <key>_remaining represents the usage remaining before hitting the limit threshold

  • salesforce

    • <key>_max (int)
    • <key>_remaining (int)
    • (…)

Tags

  • All measurements have the following tags:
    • host
    • organization_id (t18 char organisation ID)
