Connecting to InfluxDB on Layerbase Cloud

InfluxDB exposes an HTTPS endpoint and token-based access for time-series writes and queries.

Best for: Metrics, observability, sensors, operational telemetry, and time-series dashboards.

1

Open your database in the dashboard

Go to /cloud, click the database you just created, and the connection panel shows the host, port, username, password, and a ready-to-paste connection string for the engine.

Use the generated organization, bucket, and API token from the dashboard.

2

TLS is required, on by default

Use the https:// endpoint from Quick Connect.

InfluxDB HTTP API over HTTPS

3

Use any standard client

InfluxDB works with the normal client family for that engine. Start with the dashboard snippet, then move the same URL and credentials into your app environment.

If your client has separate direct, pooled, TLS, or HTTP options, prefer the exact variant shown in Quick Connect.

bashInfluxDB
curl -H "Authorization: Token YOUR_TOKEN" "https://your-host.cloud.layerbase.dev/api/v2/buckets"

InfluxDB notes

  • Keep write tokens server-side and use read-scoped tokens for dashboards.
  • The dashboard snippets show the current organization and bucket names.
