Export data collected to an external influxDB

Configuration
1

Hi there,

Is it possible to export (to stream, in fact), the data gathered by entities to an external InfluxDB hosted on another server ?

That is : I don’t want to overload my Home-assistant Raspeberry Pi with the full InfluxDB+Grafana stack.

Thanks for your answers.

check out: InfluxDB - Home Assistant (home-assistant.io)

you need to define the ip address of your influxdb instance, it does not matter where is it located as long as the ip is reachable.

Thanks really much. I thought this integration aimed at installing InfluxDB on Home-Assistant. Looks great.
