# Apache Tomcat Input Plugin

This plugin collects statistics from a [Tomcat server](https://tomcat.apache.org) instance using the manager status page. See the [Tomcat documentation](https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-9.0-doc/manager-howto.html#Server_Status) for details of these statistics.

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

## Global configuration options

Plugins support additional global and plugin configuration settings for tasks such as modifying metrics, tags, and fields, creating aliases, and configuring plugin ordering. See [CONFIGURATION.md](/telegraf/v1/configuration/#plugins) for more details.

## Configuration

```toml
# Gather metrics from the Tomcat server status page.
[[inputs.tomcat]]
  ## URL of the Tomcat server status
  # url = "http://127.0.0.1:8080/manager/status/all?XML=true"

  ## HTTP Basic Auth Credentials
  # username = "tomcat"
  # password = "s3cret"

  ## Request timeout
  # timeout = "5s"

  ## Optional TLS Config
  # tls_ca = "/etc/telegraf/ca.pem"
  # tls_cert = "/etc/telegraf/cert.pem"
  # tls_key = "/etc/telegraf/key.pem"
  ## Use TLS but skip chain & host verification
  # insecure_skip_verify = false
```
