So I was working in telegraf to add a processor for a couple measurements, to set some defaults and do some conversions. It wasn’t working so I commented out the “namepass” value to see if that was the issue. It turned out not to be, but as a result it added these fields with default values to all influx measurements (around 500 measurements currently).
Based on my reading so far, it’s not possible to delete fields out of measurements. Is there any way that I can remove these extra fields from the measurements where they aren’t supposed to be? I know I can just delete the period of time where those happened, but then I’d end up with a gap in data that I don’t want to have. I’ve fixed the issue and these fields aren’t getting values anymore, but it’s wrong to have these fields in there and it’s bugging me.
