Hi,

is there any way to send metrics to authenticated external influxdb to a database?

Thanks

I do not know, but IIRC, PVE does send it via UDP so there is no authentication as far as I understand the connectionless approach there.

A simple workaround would be to use a kind of a proxy influxdb on the PVE itself that receives the stuff from PVE and forwards it via authenticated http to your "outside influxdb".
