Collect data with input plugins

Telegraf input plugins are used with the InfluxData time series platform to collect metrics from the system, services, or third-party APIs. All metrics are gathered from the inputs you enable and configure in the Telegraf configuration file.

For a complete list of input plugins and links to their detailed configuration options, see input plugins.

In addition to plugin-specific data formats, Telegraf supports a set of common data formats available when configuring many of the Telegraf input plugins.
