CSV input - Data type per column - CSV with 1200 columns

Telegraf
1

I have been trying out telegraf for the first time, but I am running into issues with the data types. I have CSVs with over 1200 columns, and I would like to configure the parser to force float type to all. The problem I see is I can only do it if I write down the data type per column. You can imagine the mess of copying this over 1200 times.

Is there a more elegant approach?

Thanks!

Hello @rjvt,
If you’re using InfluxDB v2, I suggest looking at:

You can force types with the influx write command.
Does that help?
