Use the InfluxDB HTTP API to write data to {{< product-name >}}. Different APIs are available depending on your integration method.

[!Tip]

Choose the write endpoint for your workload

When creating new write workloads, use the InfluxDB HTTP API /api/v3/write_lp endpoint and client libraries.

When bringing existing v1 write workloads, use the {{% product-name %}} HTTP API /write endpoint.

When bringing existing v2 write workloads, use the {{% product-name %}} HTTP API /api/v2/write endpoint.

For Telegraf, use the InfluxDB v1.x outputs.influxdb or v2.x outputs.influxdb_v2 output plugins. See how to use Telegraf to write data. {{% /show-in %}}
