Librato Output Plugin

This plugin writes metrics to the Librato service. It requires an api_user and api_token which can be obtained here for your account.

The source_tag option in the Configuration file is used to send contextual information from Point Tags to the API. Besides from this, the plugin currently does not send any additional associated Point Tags.

Introduced in: Telegraf v0.2.0 Tags: cloud, datastore 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.

Secret-store support

This plugin supports secrets from secret-stores for the api_user and api_token option. See the secret-store documentation for more details on how to use them.
