Important changes

This release introduces user and account management, API token authentication, and configurable authentication options. By default, authentication is required to interact with all API endpoints. If you have agents reading configurations from and reporting heartbeats to {{% product-name %}}, they will begin to fail with authorization errors.

To avoid agent authorization errors:

  1. Temporarily disable authentication on the Heartbeat and Configs APIs. You can use either the --disable-auth-endpoints command flag or the DISABLED_AUTH_ENDPOINTS environment variable when starting {{% product-name %}}.

    {{< code-tabs-wrapper >}} {{% code-tabs %}} Command flags Environment Variables {{% /code-tabs %}} {{% code-tab-content %}}

telegraf_controller --disable-auth-endpoints=configs,heartbeat

{{% /code-tab-content %}} {{% code-tab-content %}}

export DISABLED_AUTH_ENDPOINTS="configs,heartbeat"

telegraf_controller --disable-auth-endpoints=configs,heartbeat

{{% /code-tab-content %}} {{< /code-tabs-wrapper >}}

  1. Create an API token with read permissions on the Configs API and write permissions on the Heartbeat API.

  2. Use the INFLUX_TOKEN environment variable to define the token option in your heartbeat output plugin configuration:

    [[outputs.heartbeat]]
# ...
token = "${INFLUX_TOKEN}"

  3. Define the INFLUX_TOKEN environment variable in your Telegraf environment:

    export INFLUX_TOKEN=YOUR_TELEGRAF_CONTROLLER_TOKEN

telegraf --config "https://localhost:8888/api/configs/..."

    Replace {{% code-placeholder-key %}}YOUR_TELEGRAF_CONTROLLER_TOKEN{{% /code-placeholder-key %}} with your {{% product-name %}} API token.

    [!Important] It's important to use the INFLUX_TOKEN environment variable. When present, Telegraf uses this specific variable to set the token used in the Authorization header when requesting the configuration.

  4. Navigate to the Settings page in {{% product-name %}} and reenable authentication on the Configs and Heartbeat APIs. Save your changes.
