# Quix Output Plugin

This plugin writes metrics to a [Quix](https://quix.io) endpoint.

Please consult Quix’s [official documentation](https://quix.io/docs/) for more details on the Quix platform architecture and concepts.

**Introduced in:** Telegraf v1.33.0 **Tags:** cloud, messaging **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.

## Secret-store support

This plugin supports secrets from secret-stores for the `token` option. See the [secret-store documentation](/telegraf/v1/configuration/#secret-store-secrets) for more details on how to use them.

## Configuration

```toml
# Send metrics to a Quix data processing pipeline
[[outputs.quix]]
  ## Endpoint for providing the configuration
  # url = "https://portal-api.platform.quix.io"

  ## Workspace and topics to send the metrics to
  workspace = "your_workspace"
  topic = "your_topic"

  ## Authentication token created in Quix
  token = "your_auth_token"

  ## Amount of time allowed to complete the HTTP request for fetching the config
  # timeout = "5s"
```

The plugin requires a [SDK token](https://quix.io/docs/develop/authentication/personal-access-token.html) for authentication with Quix. You can generate the `token` in settings under the `API and tokens` section.

Furthermore, the `workspace` parameter must be set to the `Workspace ID` or the `Environment ID` of your Quix project. Those values can be found in settings under the `General settings` section.
