So updating and using InfluxDB 2.0 is quite the challenge, a beautiful interface but changed up quite a lot on config files. I know in Telegraf you have to do different settings such as Org, your token, bucket; is there something similar when editing the config files in Home Assistant? [Following this tutorial](https://selfhostedhome.com/storing-home-assistant-sensor-data-in-influxdb/) all you really have to do is edit the _configuration.yaml_ file in Home Assistant, but of course the instructions state for influxdb 1.x not 2.0. How would I do 2.0 config settings so I can pull the data? ---

Hello @FormBurden, I’m sorry you’re having trouble. I’m not quite sure I’m not familiar with Home Assistant. This compatibility documentation might be useful to you though. > **[InfluxDB 1.x compatibility API | InfluxDB OSS 2.6 Documentation](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/v2.0/reference/api/influxdb-1x/)** > > The InfluxDB v2 API includes InfluxDB 1.x compatibility endpoints that work with InfluxDB 1.x client libraries and third-party integrations like Grafana and others. If you’re still having trouble please let me know and I’ll forward this question to someone who can help you better. ---

Hello @ingoratsdorf thank you for sharing your solution and welcome! What are you using home assistant with influxdb for? The documentation has certainly improved since then
