 ==== Connecting to InfluxDB
-You can inject an auto-configured `org.influxdb.InfluxDB` to access InfluxDB databases. You must specify your InfluxDB server url,
-there is no default url.
+Spring Boot auto-configures an `InfluxDB` instance as long as the `influxdb-java` client
+is on the classpath and the url of the database is set:
 
-[source,java,indent=0]
+[source,properties,indent=0]
+----
+	spring.influx.url=http://172.0.0.1:8086
 ----
-	@Component
-	public class MyBean {
-
-		private InfluxDB influxDB;
-
-		@Autowired
-		public MyBean(InfluxDB influxDB) {
-			this.influxDB = influxDB;
-		}
 
-		// ...
+If the connection to InfluxDB requires a user and password, you can set the
+`spring.influx.user` and `spring.influx.password` properties accordingly.

-You can set `spring.influx.client.url` property to change the URL. If the connection to InfluxDB require user and password,
-you can set `spring.influx.client.user` property and `spring.influx.client.password` property to change them.
