Example

This example Data Stream demonstrates how to use the Listener to return performance data from an InfluxDB bucket.

Refer to configuration to understand all configuration options of this Agent.

Step 1: Add the Agent

Drag the InfluxDB Listener onto the canvas and rename it. Link the output endpoint to the printer, and save the Data Stream.

Step 2: Configure General

Select the Agent and click Configure. In this case, keep the default Collection and polling interval.

Step 3: Configure Database

Enter Database Details of the Influx Data Cloud to which you want to connect: URL, Token and Org.

Select the bucket and measurement. In this case, set the bucket to Internet and measurement to Internet Speed.

Step 4: Configure Payload

Add the Tag and Field properties to be included in the output payload. In this case, the latency field property with a type of string.

Step 5: Result

Apply the changes, save Data Stream and publish it.

Let's look at the Live Data View. Observe that new rows are printed every 10 seconds - these are the rows that were added to the InfluxDB bucket since the last poll.
