Use [Grafana](https://grafana.com/) or [Grafana Cloud](https://grafana.com/products/cloud/)
|
|
to visualize data from your **InfluxDB Enterprise v1.7** instance.

|
The instructions in this guide require **Grafana Cloud** or **Grafana v7.1+**.
|
|
For information about using InfluxDB with other versions of Grafana,
|
|
see the [Grafana documentation](https://grafana.com/docs/grafana/v7.0/features/datasources/influxdb/).
|

{{% /note %}}
|
|
|
|
1. [Set up an InfluxDB Enterprise cluster](/enterprise_influxdb/v1.7/install-and-deploy/).
|
|
2. [Sign up for Grafana Cloud](https://grafana.com/products/cloud/) or
|
|
[download and install Grafana](https://grafana.com/grafana/download).
|
|
3. Visit your **Grafana Cloud user interface** (UI) or, if running Grafana locally,
|
|
[start Grafana](https://grafana.com/docs/grafana/latest/installation/) and visit
|
|
`http://localhost:3000` in your browser.
|
|
4. In the left navigation of the Grafana UI, hover over the gear
|
|
icon to expand the **Configuration** section. Click **Data Sources**.
|
|
5. Click **Add data source**.
|
|
6. Select **InfluxDB** from the list of available data sources.
|
|
7. On the **Data Source configuration page**, enter a **name** for your InfluxDB data source.
|
|
8. Under **Query Language**, select one of the following:
|
|
|
|
{{< tabs-wrapper >}}
|
|
{{% tabs %}}
|
|
[InfluxQL](#)
|
|
[Flux](#)
|
|
{{% /tabs %}}
|
|
{{% tab-content %}}
|
|
## Configure Grafana to use InfluxQL
|
|
|
|
With **InfluxQL** selected as the query language in your InfluxDB data source settings:
|
|
|
|
1. Under **HTTP**, enter the following:
|
|
|
|
- **URL**: Your **InfluxDB Enterprise URL** or **load balancer URL**.
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
http://localhost:8086/
|
|
```
|
|
- **Access**: Server (default)
|
|
|
|
2. Under **InfluxDB Details**, enter the following:
|
|
|
|
- **Database**: your database name
|
|
- **User**: your InfluxDB Enterprise username _(if [authentication is enabled](/influxdb/v1.7/administration/authentication_and_authorization/))_
|
|
- **Password**: your InfluxDB Enterprise password _(if [authentication is enabled](/influxdb/v1.7/administration/authentication_and_authorization/))_
|
|
- **HTTP Method**: select **GET** or **POST** _(for differences between the two,
|
|
see the [query HTTP endpoint documentation](/influxdb/v1.7/tools/api/#query-http-endpoint))_
|
|
|
|
3. Provide a **[Min time interval](https://grafana.com/docs/grafana/latest/datasources/influxdb/#min-time-interval)**
|
|
(default is 10s).
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
4. Click **Save & Test**. Grafana attempts to connect to InfluxDB Enterprise and returns
|
|
the result of the test.
|
|
{{% /tab-content %}}
|
|
|
|
{{% tab-content %}}
|
|
## Configure Grafana to use Flux
|
|
To query InfluxDB Enterprise using Flux from Grafana, **upgrade to InfluxDB Enterprise 1.8.1+**:
|
|
|
|
- [Upgrade to InfluxDB Enterprise 1.8.x](/enterprise_influxdb/v1.8/administration/upgrading/)
|
|
- [Use Grafana with InfluxDB Enterprise 1.8](/enterprise_influxdb/v1.8/tools/grafana/).
