# discard Output Plugin
This output plugin simply drops all metrics that are sent to it. It is only
meant to be used for testing purposes.
## Global configuration options <!-- @/docs/includes/plugin_config.md -->
In addition to the plugin-specific configuration settings, plugins support
additional global and plugin configuration settings. These settings are used to
modify metrics, tags, and field or create aliases and configure ordering, etc.
See the [CONFIGURATION.md][CONFIGURATION.md] for more details.
[CONFIGURATION.md]: ../../../docs/CONFIGURATION.md#plugins
