InfluxDB v3 API client libraries

Client libraries for InfluxDB v3

InfluxDB v3 client libraries are language-specific packages that work with and integrate with your application to write to and query data in InfluxDB Cloud Serverless. InfluxData and the user community maintain client libraries for developers who want to take advantage of:

• Idioms for InfluxDB requests, responses, and errors.
• Common patterns in a familiar programming language.
• Faster development and less boilerplate code.

InfluxDB client libraries provide configurable batch writing of data to InfluxDB HTTP APIs. They can be used to construct line protocol data and transform data from other formats to line protocol.

InfluxDB v3 client libraries can query InfluxDB v3 using InfluxDB v3’s IOx-specific Arrow Flight protocol with gRPC. Client libraries use Flight clients to execute SQL and InfluxQL queries, request database information, and retrieve data stored in InfluxDB Cloud Serverless.

Additional features may vary among client libraries.

For specifics about a client library, see the library’s GitHub repository. InfluxDB v3 client libraries are part of the Influx Community.

# Instantiate an InfluxDB client configured for a bucket
client = InfluxDBClient3(
  "https://cloud2.influxdata.com",
  database="BUCKET_NAME",
  token="API_TOKEN")

# Execute the query and retrieve data formatted as a PyArrow Table
table = client.query(
  '''SELECT *
    FROM home
    WHERE time >= now() - INTERVAL '90 days'
    ORDER BY time'''
)
