Overview
What is InfluxDB MCP Server?
InfluxDB MCP Server is a Model Context Protocol server that exposes access to an InfluxDB v2 instance through the InfluxDB OSS API v2. It provides resources for browsing organizations, buckets, and measurements, tools for writing data and executing Flux queries, and prompt templates for common database operations.
How to use InfluxDB MCP Server?
Set the INFLUXDB_TOKEN environment variable, optionally configure INFLUXDB_URL (defaults to http://localhost:8086) and INFLUXDB_ORG, then run the server via npx influxdb-mcp-server. The server uses stdio transport by default and can also start with Streamable HTTP transport using the --http flag. Add it to your MCP client configuration, such as claude_desktop_config.json.
