influxdb3 export busted.

[burnsjake]

My glances.conf has only a [influxbd3] stanza.

I have tried package based glances installation and made sure the python influxdb client package is installed.
I have tried installing glances and the influxdb3 client via pip as well. I only copied the influxdb3 export config stanza from a sample glances conf and replaced my token with and admin token that I verified does work.

I keep getting the following:
glances -C ./glances.conf --export influxdb3
Traceback (most recent call last):

from influxdb_client_3 import InfluxDBClient3
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'influxdb_client_3'

I have triple checked that the influxdb python client is installed:
$ python
Python 3.14.3 (main, Feb 10 2026, 19:44:45) [GCC 14.2.1 20250405] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

import influxdb_client_3

What do I need to do with glances to get it to export to influxdb3?

Hi @burnsjake

the message is clear: ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'influxdb_client_3'

The InfluxDB Python lib is not installed on your system. How do you install Glances ?
