Thank you Marc! It is very good to know that.
I was trying to get the tag dynamic because I'm also using Fluentd and there I want to treat each metric differently. The tag after the url in the write_http is used in Fluenyd to match the record and in order to make transformations on. I managed to manipulate the tag to what I needed finally. But it will be much better if it could be done in collectd.conf in the first place.
