InfluxDB Jenkins Pipeline Plugin: Target was null

Question

I'm using InfluxDB Plugin to send metrics from my Jenkins build to influx. I want to use just the Jenkins Pipeline.

The version of the plugin is 1.10.2.

I add the following code to my Jenkinsfile as indicated in the documentation:

step([$class: 'InfluxDbPublisher',
        customData: null,
        customDataMap: null,
        customPrefix: null,
        target: 'http://ip:port,jenkins-db'])

When I execute the build I receive this error:

java.lang.RuntimeException: Target was null!
    at jenkinsci.plugins.influxdb.InfluxDbPublisher.perform(InfluxDbPublisher.java:186)
    at org.jenkinsci.plugins.workflow.steps.CoreStep$Execution.run(CoreStep.java:69)
    at org.jenkinsci.plugins.workflow.steps.CoreStep$Execution.run(CoreStep.java:59)

I see the configuration of the target was invalid but I don't understand why. Someone can help me?

Try using the another syntax

step([$class: 'InfluxDbPublisher',
        customData: null,
        customDataMap: null,
        customPrefix: null,
        target: 'local influxDB'])
