Description
My colleague and me spent the whole day trying to get the InfluxDB to send data to our HTTP-Endpoint. We didn't know that a subscription will get data from our InfluxDB and not send it to the we defined in our CREATE SUBSCRIPTION command, but /write. Would be great to add that info to the docs to save time of future users.

Research direction
Start with the InfluxDB v1.8 subscription-management documentation at the relevant URL. Clarify that subscriptions send data to /write rather than only the host specified in CREATE SUBSCRIPTION. The work is done when this endpoint behavior is documented clearly for future users.
