With InfluxDB, a time series database designed to handle high write and query loads, you can analyse your sensor values in more detail then the internal Device log and reporting system.

To setup a regular data push from Domoticz to Influx DB you go to Setup - More options - Data Push - InfluxDB

Prerequisite: An installed influxDB installation with an active (but empty) database (eg named: domoticz). Can be installed on the same or a different server (preferred).


You can add the individual devices you want to send to Influx dB in the Edit Link section

  • Device name: Select the device from which the data has to be send to InfluxDB
  • Value to Send: Some devices have multiple values eg Temperature, Humidity or Barometer pressure. Select here the value to send.
  • Target type: What triggers the send to influxDB action:
    • On value change: Only when the updated value is different from the previous.
    • Direct: After each update in Domoticz, changed or not
  • Link Active: Yes/No


In the General Settings section you can enter the details of the InfluxDB you have created before.

  • Remote adress: (IP) adress of the influxDB server
  • Port
  • Path: only when on a remote proxy server
  • Database: Name of influxDB that is created.
  • Username/Password for old V1.x influxDB installation.
