# Form Urlencoded
|
|
|
|
|
|
The `form-urlencoded` data format parses `application/x-www-form-urlencoded`
|
|
data, such as commonly used in the [query string][].
|
|
|
|
A common use case is to pair it with [http_listener_v2][] input plugin to parse
|
|
request body or query params.
|
|
|
|
### Configuration
|
|
|
|
```toml
|
|
[[inputs.http_listener_v2]]
|
|
## Address and port to host HTTP listener on
|
|
service_address = ":8080"
|
|
|
|
## Part of the request to consume. Available options are "body" and
|
|
## "query".
|
|
data_source = "body"
|
|
|
|
## Data format to consume.
|
|
## Each data format has its own unique set of configuration options, read
|
|
## more about them here:
|
|
## https://github.com/influxdata/telegraf/blob/master/docs/DATA_FORMATS_INPUT.md
|
|
data_format = "form_urlencoded"
|
|
|
|
## Array of key names which should be collected as tags.
|
|
## By default, keys with string value are ignored if not marked as tags.
|
|
form_urlencoded_tag_keys = ["tag1"]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Examples
|
|
|
|
#### Basic parsing
|
|
|
|
Config:
|
|
```toml
|
|
[[inputs.http_listener_v2]]
|
|
name_override = "mymetric"
|
|
service_address = ":8080"
|
|
data_source = "query"
|
|
data_format = "form_urlencoded"
|
|
form_urlencoded_tag_keys = ["tag1"]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Request:
|
|
```bash
|
|
curl -i -XGET 'http://localhost:8080/telegraf?tag1=foo&field1=0.42&field2=42'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Output:
|
|
```
|
|
mymetric,tag1=foo field1=0.42,field2=42
|
|
```
