I have an InfluxDB v1.7.9 installation and my Jmeter v5.2 is correctly sending data to it through the default Backend Listener (org.apache.jmeter.visualizers.backend.influxdb.HttpMetricsSender). I can see the data when querying the database. Sample here:
time application avg count countError endedT hit max maxAT meanAT min minAT pct10.0 pct90.0 pct95.0 pct99.0 rb responseCode responseMessage sb startedT statut transaction

However, as you can see from this sample, the 'responseCode' column is empty and only displays data when an error occurs (500, 404, Non HTTP response code, etc). I am interested in recording all the Response Codes, not just errors.
I attempted to amend the jmeter.properties file defaults, without success. Can anyone help me identify the reason why the Response Codes for successful requests are not parsed over?
As per JMeter 5.2 response code and message are stored only for failed samplers:
private void addErrorMetric(String transaction, ErrorMetric err, long count) {
//
tag.append(TAG_RESPONSE_CODE).append(AbstractInfluxdbMetricsSender.tagToStringValue(err.getResponseCode()));
tag.append(TAG_RESPONSE_MESSAGE).append(AbstractInfluxdbMetricsSender.tagToStringValue(err.getResponseMessage()));
//
Unfortunately this is not something you can control via JMeter Properties, if you want to change this behaviour you need to amend InfluxdbBackendListenerClient and rebuild JMeter from source code
