Support for InfluxDB 3.0

Third party integrations
,
1

InfluxData recently released InfluxDB 3.0 which appears to be a fairly substantial design change. However, they do maintain there is v1 and v2 API compatbility. Has anyone been successful testing the existing InfluxDB integration with v3? Or does the integration need an update prior to being compatible?

For reference, here is a link to the InfluxDB 3 Core documentation: InfluxDB 3 Core Documentation

For those that are interested, I was able to stream data into InfluxDB 3 Core. Below is my configuration.yaml setup. Note that I kept the organization from my InfluxDB v2 install. I’m not sure if the InfluxDB integration requires it or not.

influxdb:
  api_version: 2
  ssl: false
  host: 192.168.1.101
  port: 8181
  token: [my_token]
  bucket: homeassistant
  organization: 339592ab0c89c54e

Be aware of the limitations of v3:

For the users in category 1, we’re announcing a free tier of InfluxDB 3 Enterprise for at-home, non-commercial use. It will be rate limited in some way, but our intention is to give a free option with all the capabilities of Enterprise for these at-home users

It’s not even clear which limitations are in place! luckily they removed the limitation of querying 72 hours at time (!!!) and 1 year in the past… but you see that it’s not looking promising.

If you have no specific need for v3, v2.7 (which I use) is a very powerful and free choice, without unclear/hidden limitations.
