Is it possible to use telegraf with InfluxDB Cloud without an additional server?
At the moment I have to keep my computer running in the background with telegraf --config https://eu-central-1-1.aws.cloud2.influxdata.com/api/v2/telegrafs/07a5541exxxxxxxx
Any Idea?
Not currently. Telegraf requires a machine/VM or server/cloud instance hosted by yourself to be running to gather the metrics. Telegraf is pretty lean, so can run on very minimal hardware requirements.

Hey @popey, thanks for your reply. I was just wondering, if I really need that extra step.
Would be really nice if it where usable just with InfluxDB Cloud.

I understand the requirement. We have had other customers and community users requesting it in the past. I’ll pass your feedback on to the team.

Hi @popey,
are there any news about the development of an serverless Telegraf Agent hosted and integrated in the InfluxDB Cloud? It would be nice to have this feature. Are there any serios plans to do it?
Kind regards
Timo
