Fantastic Tutorial! I've enjoyed this and several other tutorials from you. I am very new to HA, and I appreciate your step-by-step tutorials!! In my case I had some concern about creating a local database inside Home Assistant, since I am running HA on an ODROID N2+ and I worry about the reliability of EMMC memory. I already have a dedicated PC with Influx (+ Grafana) collecting data from a different Hub (Hubitat), and that is working well. So, with the Influx DB add-on in HA I've configured the local address of this PC. I edited my config.yaml file to reflect this domain and port with Influx. However, in the Influx Add-On in HA, while I see "Measurements and Tags" and "Fields", from HA, Influx shows "No Data" for DB Home_Assistant. For my other database, I can see data, so I think my issue is that my HA Influx Add-On is not writing data from HA. (Yes, I've waited a few hours.) Of course, in Grafana ( HA Add-On) can see the tags and fields from HA, but Grafana also reports "No Data." If you can, please point me to some resource where I can learn how to push data from HA to an Influx DB on a different computer on my local network. 😃
