InfluxDB measurement names

Hi,

I recently started playing with InfluxDB and Grafana to visualize HA sensor data.
I whitelisted the temp and light sensor components of my Fibaro multisensor and they showed up in InfluxDB as “°C” and “lux” measurements.
I just added some template sensors for the battery values of my thermostats and I’m getting an additional measurement called “%” which probably holds the data for all thermostats combined.
Is there a way to assign meaningful names to the measurements in InfluxDB?
It seems it’s choosing the unit_of_measurement value from HA, which is not making the most sense…

Thanks!
Sebastian

Ok, I found this one:

which offers a solution. Apparently this is the intended behavior.
