InfluxDB

InfluxDB query editor

When you add an InfluxDB query you can specify series name (can be regex), value column and a function. Group by time can be specified or if left blank will be automatically set depending on how long the current time span is. It will translate to a InfluxDB query that looks like this:

select [[func]]([[column]]) from [[series]] where [[timeFilter]] group by time([[interval]]) order asc

To write the complete query yourself click the cog wheel icon to the right and select Raw query mode.

InfluxDB Filters & Templated queries

Use a distinct influxdb query in the filter query input box:

select distinct(host) from app.status
