Use the InfluxDB user interface (UI) or the [`influx` CLI](/v2.0/reference/cli/influx/)
|
2020-07-23 20:25:40 +00:00
|
|
|
to remove Telegraf configurations from InfluxDB.

|
|
|
Deleting a Telegraf configuration does not affect _**running**_ Telegraf agents.
|
|
|
|
|
However, if an agents stops, it needs a new configuration to start.
