The `influxdb` integration makes it possible to transfer all state changes to an external [InfluxDB](https://influxdb.com/) database. See the [official installation documentation](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/v1.7/introduction/installation/) for how to set up an InfluxDB database, or [there is a community add-on](https://community.home-assistant.io/t/community-hass-io-add-on-influxdb/54491) available.
|
||||
|
||||
Additionally, you can now make use of an InfluxDB 2.0 installation with this integration. See the [official installation instructions](https://v2.docs.influxdata.com/v2.0/) for how to set up an InfluxDB 2.0 database. Or you can sign up for their [cloud service](https://cloud2.influxdata.com/signup) and connect Home Assistant to that. Note that the configuration is significantly different for a 2.xx installation, the documentation below will note when fields or defaults apply to only a 1.xx installation or a 2.xx installation.

## Sensor
|

|

The `influxdb` sensor allows you to use values from an [InfluxDB](https://influxdb.com/) database to populate a sensor state. This can be use to present statistic about home_assistant sensors if used with the `influxdb` history component. It can also be used with an external data source.

|
||||
|
||||
To configure this sensor, you need to define the sensor connection variables and a list of queries to your `configuration.yaml` file. A sensor will be created for each query:

Note that 2.xx installations of InfluxDB only support queries in their Flux language. While this language was available in 1.xx installations, it was not the default and not used in the API so you may not be aware of it. You can learn more about it from their [documentation](https://v2.docs.influxdata.com/v2.0/reference/flux/) or by using the query builder in the UI.

Note that when working with Flux queries, the resultset is broken into tables, you can see how this works in the Data Explorer of the UI. If you are operating on data created by the InfluxDB history component, this means by default, you will have a table for each entity and each attribute of each entity (other then `unit_of_measurement` and any others you promoted to tags).
|
||||
|
||||
This is a lot more tables compared to 1.xx queries, where you essentially had one table per `unit_of_measurement` across all entities. You can still create aggregate metrics across multiple sensors though. As you can see in the example above, a good way to do this is with the [keep](https://v2.docs.influxdata.com/v2.0/reference/flux/stdlib/built-in/transformations/keep/) or [drop](https://v2.docs.influxdata.com/v2.0/reference/flux/stdlib/built-in/transformations/drop/) filters. When you remove key columns Influx merges tables, allowing you to make many tables that share a schema for `_value` into one.
