influxdb

Return data to an InfluxDB <v2 server.

Important

Using this returner requires minion configuration.

Usage

To use the influxdb returner, append ‘–return influxdb’ to the Salt command.

salt '*' test.ping --return influxdb

To use the alternative configuration, append ‘–return_config alternative’ to the Salt command.

salt '*' test.ping --return influxdb --return_config alternative

To override individual configuration items, append –return_kwargs ‘{“key:”: “value”}’ to the Salt command.

salt '*' test.ping --return influxdb --return_kwargs '{"db": "another-salt"}'
