If you want help it is best to ask a specific question so we know what you need help with.

1. Do you want some of those as Influxdb Fields and some as Tags? If you don't know the difference then you need to learn more about Influx. Make sure you look at the docs for the version of Influx that you are using,

2. Do you know how to access data in a message? If not then I recommend watching this playlist: [Node-RED Essentials](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLyNBB9VCLmo1hyO-4fIZ08gqFcXBkHy-6). The videos are done by the developers of node-red. They're nice & short and to the point. You will understand a whole lot more in about 1 hour. A small investment for a lot of gain. Pay particular attention to the section Working with Messages.

3. Have you studied the help text for the Influxdb Out node and looked at the examples in the [node's readme](https://flows.nodered.org/node/node-red-contrib-influxdb)? If so then tell us how you want msg.payload structured for sending to that node.
