InfluxDB OSS API Service (2.x)

License: MIT

The InfluxDB v2 HTTP API provides a programmatic interface for all interactions with an InfluxDB v2 instance.

The InfluxDB v2 HTTP API provides a programmatic interface for all interactions with an InfluxDB v2 instance. Access the InfluxDB API using /api/v2/ and InfluxDB v1-compatible endpoints.

This documentation is generated from the InfluxDB OpenAPI specification.

Quick start

See the API Quick Start to get up and running authenticating with tokens, writing to buckets, and querying data.

InfluxDB API client libraries are available for popular languages and ready to import into your application.

Authentication

Use one of the following schemes to authenticate to the InfluxDB API:

Token authentication
Basic authentication
Querystring authentication

BasicAuthentication

Basic authentication scheme

Use the HTTP Basic authentication scheme for InfluxDB /api/v2 API operations that support it:

Syntax

Authorization: Basic BASE64_ENCODED_CREDENTIALS

To construct the BASE64_ENCODED_CREDENTIALS, combine the username and the password with a colon (USERNAME:PASSWORD), and then encode the resulting string in base64. Many HTTP clients encode the credentials for you before sending the request.

Warning: Base64-encoding can easily be reversed to obtain the original username and password. It is used to keep the data intact and does not provide security. You should always use HTTPS when authenticating or sending a request with sensitive information.

Examples

In the examples, replace the following:

USERNAME: InfluxDB username
PASSWORD: InfluxDB API token
INFLUX_URL: your InfluxDB URL

Encode credentials with cURL

The following example shows how to use cURL to send an API request that uses Basic authentication. With the --user option, cURL encodes the credentials and passes them in the Authorization: Basic header.

curl --get "INFLUX_URL/api/v2/signin"
    --user "USERNAME":"PASSWORD"

Encode credentials with Flux

The Flux http.basicAuth() function returns a Base64-encoded basic authentication header using a specified username and password combination.

Encode credentials with JavaScript

The following example shows how to use the JavaScript btoa() function to create a Base64-encoded string:

btoa('USERNAME:PASSWORD')

The output is the following:

'VVNFUk5BTUU6UEFTU1dPUkQ='

Once you have the Base64-encoded credentials, you can pass them in the Authorization header--for example:

curl --get "INFLUX_URL/api/v2/signin"
    --header "Authorization: Basic VVNFUk5BTUU6UEFTU1dPUkQ="

To learn more about HTTP authentication, see Mozilla Developer Network (MDN) Web Docs, HTTP authentication._

Security Scheme Type	HTTP
HTTP Authorization Scheme	basic

TokenAuthentication

Use the Token authentication scheme to authenticate to the InfluxDB API.

In your API requests, send an Authorization header. For the header value, provide the word Token followed by a space and an InfluxDB API token. The word Token is case-sensitive.

Syntax

Authorization: Token INFLUX_API_TOKEN

Example

Use Token authentication with cURL

The following example shows how to use cURL to send an API request that uses Token authentication:

curl --request GET "INFLUX_URL/api/v2/buckets" \
    --header "Authorization: Token INFLUX_API_TOKEN"

Replace the following:

INFLUX_URL: your InfluxDB URL
INFLUX_API_TOKEN: your InfluxDB API token

/authorizations endpoints

Security Scheme Type	API Key
Header parameter name:	Authorization

Supported operations

The following table shows the most common operations that the InfluxDB /api/v2 API supports. Some resources may support other operations that perform functions more specific to those resources. For example, you can use the PATCH /api/v2/scripts endpoint to update properties of a script resource.

Operation
Write	Writes (`POST`) data to a bucket.
Run	Executes (`POST`) a query or script and returns the result.
List	Retrieves (`GET`) a list of zero or more resources.
Create	Creates (`POST`) a new resource and returns the resource.
Update	Modifies (`PUT`) an existing resource to reflect data in your request.
Delete	Removes (`DELETE`) a specific resource.

Headers

InfluxDB HTTP API endpoints use standard HTTP request and response headers. The following table shows common headers used by many InfluxDB API endpoints. Some endpoints may use other headers that perform functions more specific to those endpoints--for example, the POST /api/v2/write endpoint accepts the Content-Encoding header to indicate the compression applied to line protocol in the request body.

Header	Value type	Description
`Accept`	string	The content type that the client can understand.
`Authorization`	string	The authorization scheme and credential.
`Content-Length`	integer	The size of the entity-body, in bytes, sent to the database.
`Content-Type`	string	The format of the data in the request body.

Pagination

Some InfluxDB API list operations may support the following query parameters for paginating results:

Query parameter	Value type	Description
`limit`	integer	The maximum number of records to return (after other parameters are applied).
`offset`	integer	The number of records to skip (before `limit`, after other parameters are applied).
`after`	string (resource ID)	Only returns resources created after the specified resource.

Limitations

For specific endpoint parameters and examples, see the endpoint definition.

If you specify an offset parameter value greater than the total number of records, then InfluxDB returns an empty list in the response (given offset skips the specified number of records).

The following example passes offset=50 to skip the first 50 results, but the user only has 10 buckets:

curl --request GET "INFLUX_URL/api/v2/buckets?limit=1&offset=50" \
     --header "Authorization: Token INFLUX_API_TOKEN"

The response contains the following:

{
  "links": {
      "prev": "/api/v2/buckets?descending=false\u0026limit=1\u0026offset=49\u0026orgID=ORG_ID",
      "self": "/api/v2/buckets?descending=false\u0026limit=1\u0026offset=50\u0026orgID=ORG_ID"
  },
  "buckets": []
}

Response codes

InfluxDB HTTP API endpoints use standard HTTP status codes for success and failure responses. The response body may include additional details. For details about a specific operation's response, see Responses and Response Samples for that operation.

API operations may return the following HTTP status codes:

Code	Status	Description
`200`	Success
`204`	Success. No content	InfluxDB doesn't return data for the request.
`400`	Bad request	May indicate one of the following: Line protocol is malformed. The response body contains the first malformed line in the data and indicates what was expected. For partial writes, the number of points written and the number of points rejected are also included. For more information, check the `rejected_points` measurement in your `_monitoring` bucket. `Authorization` header is missing or malformed or the API token doesn't have permission for the operation.
`401`	Unauthorized	May indicate one of the following: `Authorization: Token` header is missing or malformed API token value is missing from the header API token doesn't have permission. For more information about token types and permissions, see Manage API tokens
`404`	Not found	Requested resource was not found. `message` in the response body provides details about the requested resource.
`413`	Request entity too large	Request payload exceeds the size limit.
`422`	Unprocessable entity	Request data is invalid. `code` and `message` in the response body provide details about the problem.
`429`	Too many requests	API token is temporarily over the request quota. The `Retry-After` header describes when to try the request again.
`500`	Internal server error
`503`	Service unavailable	Server is temporarily unavailable to process the request. The `Retry-After` header describes when to try the request again.

Data I/O endpoints

Delete data

Deletes data from a bucket.

Use this endpoint to delete points from a bucket in a specified time range.

InfluxDB Cloud

Does the following when you send a delete request:
1. Validates the request and queues the delete.
2. If queued, responds with success (HTTP 2xx status code); error otherwise.
3. Handles the delete asynchronously and reaches eventual consistency.

To ensure that InfluxDB Cloud handles writes and deletes in the order you request them, wait for a success response (HTTP 2xx status code) before you send the next request.

Because writes and deletes are asynchronous, your change might not yet be readable when you receive the response.

InfluxDB OSS

Validates the request, handles the delete synchronously, and then responds with success or failure.

Required permissions

write-buckets or write-bucket BUCKET_ID.

BUCKET_ID is the ID of the destination bucket.

Rate limits (with InfluxDB Cloud)

write rate limits apply. For more information, see limits and adjustable quotas.

Start a task run, overriding the schedule

Schedules a task run to start immediately, ignoring scheduled runs.

Use this endpoint to manually start a task run. Scheduled runs will continue to run as scheduled. This may result in concurrently running tasks.

To retry a previous run (and avoid creating a new run), use the POST /api/v2/tasks/{taskID}/runs/{runID}/retry endpoint.

Writes data to a bucket.

Use this endpoint to send data in line protocol format to InfluxDB.

InfluxDB Cloud

Does the following when you send a write request:
1. Validates the request and queues the write.
2. If queued, responds with success (HTTP 2xx status code); error otherwise.
3. Handles the delete asynchronously and reaches eventual consistency.
To ensure that InfluxDB Cloud handles writes and deletes in the order you request them, wait for a success response (HTTP 2xx status code) before you send the next request.

Because writes and deletes are asynchronous, your change might not yet be readable when you receive the response.

InfluxDB OSS

Validates the request and handles the write synchronously.
If all points were written successfully, responds with HTTP 2xx status code; otherwise, returns the first line that failed.

Required permissions

write-buckets or write-bucket BUCKET_ID.

BUCKET_ID is the ID of the destination bucket.

Rate limits (with InfluxDB Cloud)

write rate limits apply. For more information, see limits and adjustable quotas.

query Parameters

bucket required	string A bucket name or ID. InfluxDB writes all points in the batch to the specified bucket.
org required	string An organization name or ID. InfluxDB Cloud Doesn't use the `org` parameter or `orgID` parameter. Writes data to the bucket in the organization associated with the authorization (API token). InfluxDB OSS Requires either the `org` parameter or the `orgID` parameter. If you pass both `orgID` and `org`, they must both be valid. Writes data to the bucket in the specified organization.
orgID	string An organization ID. InfluxDB Cloud Doesn't use the `org` parameter or `orgID` parameter. Writes data to the bucket in the organization associated with the authorization (API token). InfluxDB OSS Requires either the `org` parameter or the `orgID` parameter. If you pass both `orgID` and `org`, they must both be valid. Writes data to the bucket in the specified organization.
precision	string (WritePrecision) Enum: "ms" "s" "us" "ns" The precision for unix timestamps in the line protocol batch.

header Parameters

Accept	string Default: application/json Value: "application/json" The content type that the client can understand. Writes only return a response body if they fail--for example, due to a formatting problem or quota limit. InfluxDB Cloud Returns only `application/json` for format and limit errors. Returns only `text/html` for some quota limit errors. InfluxDB OSS Returns only `application/json` for format and limit errors. Related guides Troubleshoot issues writing data
Content-Encoding	string Default: identity Enum: "gzip" "identity" The compression applied to the line protocol in the request payload. To send a gzip payload, pass `Content-Encoding: gzip` header.
Content-Length	integer The size of the entity-body, in bytes, sent to InfluxDB. If the length is greater than the `max body` configuration option, the server responds with status code `413`.
Content-Type	string Default: text/plain; charset=utf-8 Enum: "text/plain" "text/plain; charset=utf-8" The format of the data in the request body. To send a line protocol payload, pass `Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8`.
Zap-Trace-Span	string Example: baggage,[object Object],span_id,1,trace_id,1 OpenTracing span context

Request Body schema: text/plain

In the request body, provide data in line protocol format.

To send compressed data, do the following:

Security and access endpoints

List authorizations

Lists authorizations.

To limit which authorizations are returned, pass query parameters in your request. If no query parameters are passed, InfluxDB returns all authorizations.

InfluxDB Cloud

InfluxDB Cloud doesn't expose API token values in GET /api/v2/authorizations responses; returns token: redacted for all authorizations.

Required permissions

To retrieve an authorization, the request must use an API token that has the following permissions:

read-authorizations
read-user for the user that the authorization is scoped to

View tokens

Authorizations:

TokenAuthentication

query Parameters

org	string An organization name. Only returns authorizations that belong to the specified organization.
orgID	string An organization ID. Only returns authorizations that belong to the specified organization.
token	string An API token value. Specifies an authorization by its `token` property value and returns the authorization. InfluxDB OSS Doesn't support this parameter. InfluxDB OSS ignores the `token=` parameter, applies other parameters, and then returns the result. Limitations The parameter is non-repeatable. If you specify more than one, only the first one is used. If a resource with the specified property value doesn't exist, then the response body contains an empty list.
user	string A user name. Only returns authorizations scoped to the specified user.
userID	string A user ID. Only returns authorizations scoped to the specified user.

Create an authorization

Creates an authorization and returns the authorization with the generated API token.

Use this endpoint to create an authorization, which generates an API token with permissions to read or write to a specific resource or type of resource. The API token is the authorization's token property value.

To follow best practices for secure API token generation and retrieval, InfluxDB enforces access restrictions on API tokens.

InfluxDB allows access to the API token value immediately after the authorization is created.
You can’t change access (read/write) permissions for an API token after it’s created.
Tokens stop working when the user who created the token is deleted.

We recommend the following for managing your tokens:

Create a generic user to create and manage tokens for writing data.
Store your tokens in a secure password vault for future access.

Required permissions

write-authorizations
write-user for the user that the authorization is scoped to

header Parameters

Zap-Trace-Span

string

Example: baggage,[object Object],span_id,1,trace_id,1

OpenTracing span context

Request Body schema: application/json

The authorization to create.

description	string A description of the token.
orgID required	string An organization ID. Specifies the organization that owns the authorization.
required	Array of objects (Permission) non-empty A list of permissions for an authorization. In the list, provide at least one `permission` object. In a `permission`, the `resource.type` property grants access to all resources of the specified type. To grant access to only a specific resource, specify the `resource.id` property.
status	string Default: "active" Enum: "active" "inactive" Status of the token. If `inactive`, InfluxDB rejects requests that use the token.
userID	string A user ID. Specifies the user that the authorization is scoped to. When a user authenticates with username and password, InfluxDB generates a user session with all the permissions specified by all the user's authorizations.

Create a user session.

Authenticates Basic authentication credentials for a user, and then, if successful, generates a user session.

To authenticate a user, pass the HTTP Authorization header with the Basic scheme and the base64-encoded username and password. For syntax and more information, see Basic Authentication for syntax and more information.

If authentication is successful, InfluxDB creates a new session for the user and then returns the session cookie in the Set-Cookie response header.

InfluxDB stores user sessions in memory only. They expire within ten minutes and during restarts of the InfluxDB instance.

User sessions with authorizations

In InfluxDB Cloud, a user session inherits all the user's permissions for the organization.
In InfluxDB OSS, a user session inherits all the user's permissions for all the organizations that the user belongs to.

Expire a user session

Expires a user session specified by a session cookie.

Use this endpoint to expire a user session that was generated when the user authenticated with the InfluxDB Developer Console (UI) or the POST /api/v2/signin endpoint.

For example, the POST /api/v2/signout endpoint represents the third step in the following three-step process to authenticate a user, retrieve the user resource, and then expire the session:

Send a request with the user's Basic authentication credentials to the POST /api/v2/signin endpoint to create a user session and generate a session cookie.
Send a request to the GET /api/v2/me endpoint, passing the stored session cookie from step 1 to retrieve user information.
Send a request to the POST /api/v2/signout endpoint, passing the stored session cookie to expire the session.

See the complete example in request samples.

InfluxDB stores user sessions in memory only. If a user doesn't sign out, then the user session automatically expires within ten minutes or during a restart of the InfluxDB instance.

To learn more about cookies in HTTP requests, see Mozilla Developer Network (MDN) Web Docs, HTTP cookies.

cURL: sign in a user, verify the user session, and then end the session

# The following example shows how to use cURL and the InfluxDB API
# to do the following:
# 1. Sign in a user with a username and password.
# 2. Check that the user session exists for the user.
# 3. Sign out the user to expire the session.
# 4. Check that the session is no longer active.

# 1. Send a request to `POST /api/v2/signin` to sign in the user.
#    In your request, pass the following:
#
#      - `--user` option with basic authentication credentials.
#      - `-c` option with a file path where cURL will write cookies.

      curl --request POST \
        -c ./cookie-file.tmp \
        "$INFLUX_URL/api/v2/signin" \
        --user "${INFLUX_USER_NAME}:${INFLUX_USER_PASSWORD}"

# 2. To check that a user session exists for the user in step 1,
#    send a request to `GET /api/v2/me`.
#    In your request, pass the `-b` option with the session cookie file path from step 1.

      curl --request GET \
        -b ./cookie-file.tmp \
        "$INFLUX_URL/api/v2/me"

#    InfluxDB responds with the `user` resource.

# 3. Send a request to `POST /api/v2/signout` to expire the user session.
#    In your request, pass the `-b` option with the session cookie file path from step 1.

      curl --request POST \
        -b ./cookie-file.tmp \
        "$INFLUX_URL/api/v2/signout"

#     If the user session is successfully expired, InfluxDB responds with
      an HTTP `204` status code.

# 4. To check that the user session is expired, call `GET /api/v2/me` again,
#    passing the `-b` option with the cookie file path.

      curl --request GET \
        -b ./cookie-file.tmp \
        "$INFLUX_URL/api/v2/me"

#    If the user session is expired, InfluxDB responds with an HTTP `401` status code.

Authorizations (API tokens)

Create and manage authorizations (API tokens).

An authorization contains a list of read and write permissions for organization resources and provides an API token for authentication. An authorization belongs to an organization and only contains permissions for that organization.

We recommend creating a generic user to create and manage tokens for writing data.

User sessions with authorizations

Optionally, when creating an authorization, you can scope it to a specific user. If a user signs in with username and password, creating a user session, the session carries the permissions granted by all the user's authorizations. For more information, see how to assign a token to a specific user. To create a user session, use the POST /api/v2/signin endpoint.

Signin
Signout

List authorizations

Lists authorizations.

To limit which authorizations are returned, pass query parameters in your request. If no query parameters are passed, InfluxDB returns all authorizations.

InfluxDB Cloud

InfluxDB Cloud doesn't expose API token values in GET /api/v2/authorizations responses; returns token: redacted for all authorizations.

Required permissions

To retrieve an authorization, the request must use an API token that has the following permissions:

read-authorizations
read-user for the user that the authorization is scoped to

View tokens

Authorizations:

TokenAuthentication

query Parameters

org	string An organization name. Only returns authorizations that belong to the specified organization.
orgID	string An organization ID. Only returns authorizations that belong to the specified organization.
token	string An API token value. Specifies an authorization by its `token` property value and returns the authorization. InfluxDB OSS Doesn't support this parameter. InfluxDB OSS ignores the `token=` parameter, applies other parameters, and then returns the result. Limitations The parameter is non-repeatable. If you specify more than one, only the first one is used. If a resource with the specified property value doesn't exist, then the response body contains an empty list.
user	string A user name. Only returns authorizations scoped to the specified user.
userID	string A user ID. Only returns authorizations scoped to the specified user.

Create an authorization

Creates an authorization and returns the authorization with the generated API token.

Use this endpoint to create an authorization, which generates an API token with permissions to read or write to a specific resource or type of resource. The API token is the authorization's token property value.

To follow best practices for secure API token generation and retrieval, InfluxDB enforces access restrictions on API tokens.

InfluxDB allows access to the API token value immediately after the authorization is created.
You can’t change access (read/write) permissions for an API token after it’s created.
Tokens stop working when the user who created the token is deleted.

We recommend the following for managing your tokens:

Create a generic user to create and manage tokens for writing data.
Store your tokens in a secure password vault for future access.

orgID required	string An organization ID. Specifies the organization that owns the authorization.
required	Array of objects (Permission) non-empty A list of permissions for an authorization. In the list, provide at least one `permission` object. In a `permission`, the `resource.type` property grants access to all resources of the specified type. To grant access to only a specific resource, specify the `resource.id` property.
status	string Default: "active" Enum: "active" "inactive" Status of the token. If `inactive`, InfluxDB rejects requests that use the token.
userID	string A user ID. Specifies the user that the authorization is scoped to. When a user authenticates with username and password, InfluxDB generates a user session with all the permissions specified by all the user's authorizations.

Buckets

Store your data in InfluxDB buckets. A bucket is a named location where time series data is stored. All buckets have a retention period, a duration of time that each data point persists. InfluxDB drops all points with timestamps older than the bucket’s retention period. A bucket belongs to an organization.

Manage buckets

List buckets

Lists buckets.

InfluxDB retrieves buckets owned by the organization associated with the authorization (API token). To limit which buckets are returned, pass query parameters in your request. If no query parameters are passed, InfluxDB returns all buckets up to the default limit.

InfluxDB OSS

If you use an operator token to authenticate your request, InfluxDB retrieves resources for all organizations in the instance. To retrieve resources for only a specific organization, use the org parameter or the orgID parameter to specify the organization.

Create a bucket

Creates a bucket and returns the bucket resource. The default data retention period is 30 days.

InfluxDB OSS

A single InfluxDB OSS instance supports active writes or queries for approximately 20 buckets across all organizations at a given time. Reading or writing to more than 20 buckets at a time can adversely affect performance.

Limitations

InfluxDB Cloud Free Plan allows users to create up to two buckets. Exceeding the bucket quota will result in an HTTP 403 status code. For additional information regarding InfluxDB Cloud offerings, see InfluxDB Cloud Pricing.

header Parameters

Zap-Trace-Span

string

Example: baggage,[object Object],span_id,1,trace_id,1

Request Body schema: application/json

The bucket to create.

description	string A description of the bucket.
name required	string The bucket name.
orgID required	string The organization ID. Specifies the organization that owns the bucket.
	Array of objects (RetentionRules) Retention rules to expire or retain data. The InfluxDB `/api/v2` API uses `RetentionRules` to configure the retention period. InfluxDB Cloud `retentionRules` is required. InfluxDB OSS `retentionRules` isn't required.
rp	string Default: "0" The retention policy for the bucket. For InfluxDB 1.x, specifies the duration of time that each data point in the retention policy persists. If you need compatibility with InfluxDB 1.x, specify a value for the `rp` property; otherwise, see the `retentionRules` property. Retention policy is an InfluxDB 1.x concept. The InfluxDB 2.x and Cloud equivalent is retention period. The InfluxDB `/api/v2` API uses `RetentionRules` to configure the retention period.
schemaType	string (SchemaType) Enum: "implicit" "explicit"

Delete a bucket

Deletes a bucket and all associated records.

InfluxDB Cloud

Does the following when you send a delete request:
1. Validates the request and queues the delete.
2. Returns an HTTP 204 status code if queued; error otherwise.
3. Handles the delete asynchronously.

InfluxDB OSS

Validates the request, handles the delete synchronously, and then responds with success or failure.

Limitations

Only one bucket can be deleted per request.

DBRPs

The InfluxDB 1.x data model includes databases and retention policies. InfluxDB 2.x replaces databases and retention policies with buckets. To support InfluxDB 1.x query and write patterns in InfluxDB 2.x, databases and retention policies are mapped to buckets using the database and retention policy (DBRP) mapping service. The DBRP mapping service uses the database and retention policy specified in 1.x compatibility API requests to route operations to a bucket.

Delete

Delete data from an InfluxDB bucket.

Delete data

Deletes data from a bucket.

Use this endpoint to delete points from a bucket in a specified time range.

InfluxDB Cloud

Does the following when you send a delete request:
1. Validates the request and queues the delete.
2. If queued, responds with success (HTTP 2xx status code); error otherwise.
3. Handles the delete asynchronously and reaches eventual consistency.

To ensure that InfluxDB Cloud handles writes and deletes in the order you request them, wait for a success response (HTTP 2xx status code) before you send the next request.

Because writes and deletes are asynchronous, your change might not yet be readable when you receive the response.

InfluxDB OSS

Validates the request, handles the delete synchronously, and then responds with success or failure.

Required permissions

write-buckets or write-bucket BUCKET_ID.

BUCKET_ID is the ID of the destination bucket.

Rate limits (with InfluxDB Cloud)

write rate limits apply. For more information, see limits and adjustable quotas.

query Parameters

bucket	string A bucket name or ID. Specifies the bucket to delete data from. If you pass both `bucket` and `bucketID`, `bucketID` takes precedence.
bucketID	string A bucket ID. Specifies the bucket to delete data from. If you pass both `bucket` and `bucketID`, `bucketID` takes precedence.
org	string An organization name or ID. InfluxDB Cloud Doesn't use the `org` parameter or `orgID` parameter. Deletes data from the bucket in the organization associated with the authorization (API token). InfluxDB OSS Requires either the `org` parameter or the `orgID` parameter. Deletes data from the bucket in the specified organization. If you pass both `orgID` and `org`, they must both be valid.
orgID	string An organization ID. InfluxDB Cloud Doesn't use the `org` parameter or `orgID` parameter. Deletes data from the bucket in the organization associated with the authorization (API token). InfluxDB OSS Requires either the `org` parameter or the `orgID` parameter. Deletes data from the bucket in the specified organization. If you pass both `orgID` and `org`, they must both be valid.

Delete an organization

Deletes an organization.

Deleting an organization from InfluxDB Cloud can't be undone. Once deleted, all data associated with the organization is removed.

InfluxDB Cloud

Does the following when you send a delete request:
1. Validates the request and queues the delete.
2. Returns an HTTP 204 status code if queued; error otherwise.
3. Handles the delete asynchronously.

InfluxDB OSS

Validates the request, handles the delete synchronously, and then responds with success or failure.

Limitations

Only one organization can be deleted per request.

Analyze a Flux query

Analyzes a Flux query for syntax errors and returns the list of errors.

In the following sample query, from() is missing the property key.

```json
{ "query": "from(: \"iot_center\")\
            |> range(start: -90d)\
            |> filter(fn: (r) => r._measurement == \"environment\")",
  "type": "flux"
}
```

If you pass this in a request to the /api/v2/analyze endpoint, InfluxDB returns an errors list that contains an error object for the missing key.

Limitations

The endpoint doesn't validate values in the query--for example:
- The following sample query has correct syntax, but contains an incorrect from() property key:
```
{ "query": "from(foo: \"iot_center\")\
           |> range(start: -90d)\
           |> filter(fn: (r) => r._measurement == \"environment\")",
 "type": "flux"
}
```
  If you pass this in a request to the /api/v2/analyze endpoint, InfluxDB returns an empty errors list.

Returns an error object if the Flux query is missing a property key.

The following sample query is missing the bucket property key:

{
  "query": "from(: \"iot_center\")\
  ...
}

{"errors": [{"character": 0,
"column": 6,
"line": 1,
"message": "missing property key"
}
]
}

Generate a query Abstract Syntax Tree (AST)

Analyzes a Flux query and returns a complete package source Abstract Syntax Tree (AST) for the query.

Use this endpoint for deep query analysis such as debugging unexpected query results.

A Flux query AST provides a semantic, tree-like representation with contextual information about the query. The AST illustrates how the query is distributed into different components for execution.

Limitations

The endpoint doesn't validate values in the query--for example:

The following sample Flux query has correct syntax, but contains an incorrect from() property key:

 from(foo: "iot_center")
     |> range(start: -90d)
     |> filter(fn: (r) => r._measurement == "environment")

The following sample JSON shows how to pass the query in the request body:

 from(foo: "iot_center")
 |> range(start: -90d)
 |> filter(fn: (r) => r._measurement == "environment")

The following code sample shows how to pass the query as JSON in the request body:

 { "query": "from(foo: \"iot_center\")\
                 |> range(start: -90d)\
                 |> filter(fn: (r) => r._measurement == \"environment\")"
 }

Passing this to /api/v2/query/ast will return a successful response with a generated AST.

List Flux query suggestions

Lists Flux query suggestions. Each suggestion contains a Flux function name and parameters.

Use this endpoint to retrieve a list of Flux query suggestions used in the InfluxDB Flux Query Builder.

Limitations

When writing a query, avoid using _functionName() helper functions exposed by this endpoint. Helper function names have an underscore (_) prefix and aren't meant to be used directly in queries--for example:
- To sort on a column and keep the top n records, use the top(n, columns=["_value"], tables=<-) function instead of the _sortLimit helper function. top uses _sortLimit.

Retrieve a query suggestion for a branching suggestion

Retrieves a query suggestion that contains the name and parameters of the requested function.

Use this endpoint to pass a branching suggestion (a Flux function name) and retrieve the parameters of the requested function.

Limitations

Use /api/v2/query/suggestions/{name} (without a trailing slash). /api/v2/query/suggestions/{name}/ (note the trailing slash) results in a HTTP 301 Moved Permanently status.
The function name must exist and must be spelled correctly.

Signin

Create a user session.

Authenticates Basic authentication credentials for a user, and then, if successful, generates a user session.

To authenticate a user, pass the HTTP Authorization header with the Basic scheme and the base64-encoded username and password. For syntax and more information, see Basic Authentication for syntax and more information.

If authentication is successful, InfluxDB creates a new session for the user and then returns the session cookie in the Set-Cookie response header.

InfluxDB stores user sessions in memory only. They expire within ten minutes and during restarts of the InfluxDB instance.

User sessions with authorizations

In InfluxDB Cloud, a user session inherits all the user's permissions for the organization.
In InfluxDB OSS, a user session inherits all the user's permissions for all the organizations that the user belongs to.

Signout

Expire a user session

Expires a user session specified by a session cookie.

Use this endpoint to expire a user session that was generated when the user authenticated with the InfluxDB Developer Console (UI) or the POST /api/v2/signin endpoint.

For example, the POST /api/v2/signout endpoint represents the third step in the following three-step process to authenticate a user, retrieve the user resource, and then expire the session:

Send a request with the user's Basic authentication credentials to the POST /api/v2/signin endpoint to create a user session and generate a session cookie.
Send a request to the GET /api/v2/me endpoint, passing the stored session cookie from step 1 to retrieve user information.
Send a request to the POST /api/v2/signout endpoint, passing the stored session cookie to expire the session.

See the complete example in request samples.

InfluxDB stores user sessions in memory only. If a user doesn't sign out, then the user session automatically expires within ten minutes or during a restart of the InfluxDB instance.

To learn more about cookies in HTTP requests, see Mozilla Developer Network (MDN) Web Docs, HTTP cookies.

cURL: sign in a user, verify the user session, and then end the session

# The following example shows how to use cURL and the InfluxDB API
# to do the following:
# 1. Sign in a user with a username and password.
# 2. Check that the user session exists for the user.
# 3. Sign out the user to expire the session.
# 4. Check that the session is no longer active.

# 1. Send a request to `POST /api/v2/signin` to sign in the user.
#    In your request, pass the following:
#
#      - `--user` option with basic authentication credentials.
#      - `-c` option with a file path where cURL will write cookies.

      curl --request POST \
        -c ./cookie-file.tmp \
        "$INFLUX_URL/api/v2/signin" \
        --user "${INFLUX_USER_NAME}:${INFLUX_USER_PASSWORD}"

# 2. To check that a user session exists for the user in step 1,
#    send a request to `GET /api/v2/me`.
#    In your request, pass the `-b` option with the session cookie file path from step 1.

      curl --request GET \
        -b ./cookie-file.tmp \
        "$INFLUX_URL/api/v2/me"

#    InfluxDB responds with the `user` resource.

# 3. Send a request to `POST /api/v2/signout` to expire the user session.
#    In your request, pass the `-b` option with the session cookie file path from step 1.

      curl --request POST \
        -b ./cookie-file.tmp \
        "$INFLUX_URL/api/v2/signout"

#     If the user session is successfully expired, InfluxDB responds with
      an HTTP `204` status code.

# 4. To check that the user session is expired, call `GET /api/v2/me` again,
#    passing the `-b` option with the cookie file path.

      curl --request GET \
        -b ./cookie-file.tmp \
        "$INFLUX_URL/api/v2/me"

#    If the user session is expired, InfluxDB responds with an HTTP `401` status code.

Tasks

Process and analyze your data with tasks in the InfluxDB task engine. Use the /api/v2/tasks endpoints to schedule and manage tasks, retry task runs, and retrieve run logs.

To configure a task, provide the script and the schedule to run the task. For examples, see how to create a task with the POST /api/v2/tasks endpoint.

Properties

A task object contains information about an InfluxDB task resource.

The following table defines the properties that appear in a task object:

authorizationID	string An authorization ID. Specifies the authorization used when the task communicates with the query engine. To find an authorization ID, use the `GET /api/v2/authorizations` endpoint to list authorizations.

after	string A task ID. Only returns tasks created after the specified task.
limit	integer [ 1 .. 500 ] Default: 100 The maximum number of tasks to return. Default is `100`. The minimum is `1` and the maximum is `500`. To reduce the payload size, combine `type=basic` and `limit` (see Request samples). For more information about the `basic` response, see the `type` parameter.
name	string A task name. Only returns tasks with the specified name. Different tasks may have the same name.
org	string An organization name. Only returns tasks owned by the specified organization.
orgID	string An organization ID. Only returns tasks owned by the specified organization.
status	string Enum: "active" "inactive" A task status. Only returns tasks that have the specified status (`active` or `inactive`).
type	string Default: "" Enum: "basic" "system" A task type (`basic` or `system`). Default is `system`. Specifies the level of detail for tasks in the response. The default (`system`) response contains all the metadata properties for tasks. To reduce the response size, pass `basic` to omit some task properties (`flux`, `createdAt`, `updatedAt`).
user	string A user ID. Only returns tasks owned by the specified user.

Templates

Export and apply InfluxDB templates. Manage stacks of templated InfluxDB resources.

InfluxDB templates are prepackaged configurations for everything from dashboards and Telegraf to notifications and alerts. Use InfluxDB templates to quickly configure a fresh instance of InfluxDB, back up your dashboard configuration, or share your configuration with the InfluxData community.

Use the /api/v2/templates endpoints to export templates and apply templates.

InfluxDB stacks are stateful InfluxDB templates that let you add, update, and remove installed template resources over time, avoid duplicating resources when applying the same or similar templates more than once, and apply changes to distributed instances of InfluxDB OSS or InfluxDB Cloud.

Use the /api/v2/stacks endpoints to manage installed template resources.

List installed stacks

Lists installed InfluxDB stacks.

To limit stacks in the response, pass query parameters in your request. If no query parameters are passed, InfluxDB returns all installed stacks for the organization.

View InfluxDB stacks.

Authorizations:

TokenAuthentication

query Parameters

name	string Examples: name=project-stack-0 - Find stacks with the event name A stack name. Finds stack `events` with this name and returns the stacks. Repeatable. To filter for more than one stack name, repeat this parameter with each name--for example: `INFLUX_URL/api/v2/stacks?&orgID=INFLUX_ORG_ID&name=project-stack-0&name=project-stack-1`
orgID required	string An organization ID. Only returns stacks owned by the specified organization. InfluxDB Cloud Doesn't require this parameter; InfluxDB only returns resources allowed by the API token.
stackID	string Examples: stackID=09bd87cd33be3000 - Find a stack with the ID A stack ID. Only returns the specified stack. Repeatable. To filter for more than one stack ID, repeat this parameter with each ID--for example: `INFLUX_URL/api/v2/stacks?&orgID=INFLUX_ORG_ID&stackID=09bd87cd33be3000&stackID=09bef35081fe3000`

Apply or dry-run a template

Applies a template to create or update a stack of InfluxDB resources. The response contains the diff of changes and the stack ID.

Use this endpoint to install an InfluxDB template to an organization. Provide template URLs or template objects in your request. To customize which template resources are installed, use the actions parameter.

By default, when you apply a template, InfluxDB installs the template to create and update stack resources and then generates a diff of the changes. If you pass dryRun: true in the request body, InfluxDB validates the template and generates the resource diff, but doesn’t make any changes to your instance.

Custom values for templates

Some templates may contain environment references for custom metadata. To provide custom values for environment references, pass the envRefs property in the request body. For more information and examples, see how to define environment references.
Some templates may contain queries that use secrets. To provide custom secret values, pass the secrets property in the request body. Don't expose secret values in templates. For more information, see how to pass secrets when installing a template.

Required permissions

write permissions for resource types in the template.

Rate limits (with InfluxDB Cloud)

Adjustable service quotas apply. For more information, see limits and adjustable quotas.

TokenAuthentication

Request Body schema:
application/json

Parameters for applying templates.

	Array of objects or objects A list of `action` objects. Actions let you customize how InfluxDB applies templates in the request. You can use the following actions to prevent creating or updating resources: A `skipKind` action skips template resources of a specified `kind`. A `skipResource` action skips template resources with a specified `metadata.name` and `kind`.
dryRun	boolean Only applies a dry run of the templates passed in the request. Validates the template and generates a resource diff and summary. Doesn't install templates or make changes to the InfluxDB instance.
	object An object with key-value pairs that map to environment references in templates. Environment references in templates are `envRef` objects with an `envRef.key` property. To substitute a custom environment reference value when applying templates, pass `envRefs` with the `envRef.key` and the value. When you apply a template, InfluxDB replaces `envRef` objects in the template with the values that you provide in the `envRefs` parameter. For more examples, see how to define environment references. The following template fields may use environment references: `metadata.name` `spec.endpointName` `spec.associations.name` For more information about including environment references in template fields, see how to include user-definable resource names.
orgID	string Organization ID. InfluxDB applies templates to this organization. The organization owns all resources created by the template. To find your organization, see how to view organizations.
	Array of objects A list of URLs for template files. To apply a template manifest file located at a URL, pass `remotes` with an array that contains the URL.
	object An object with key-value pairs that map to secrets in queries. Queries may reference secrets stored in InfluxDB--for example, the following Flux script retrieves `POSTGRES_USERNAME` and `POSTGRES_PASSWORD` secrets and then uses them to connect to a PostgreSQL database: `import "sql" import "influxdata/influxdb/secrets" username = secrets.get(key: "POSTGRES_USERNAME") password = secrets.get(key: "POSTGRES_PASSWORD") sql.from( driverName: "postgres", dataSourceName: "postgresql://${username}:${password}@localhost:5432", query: "SELECT * FROM example_table", )` To define secret values in your `/api/v2/templates/apply` request, pass the `secrets` parameter with key-value pairs--for example: `{ ... "secrets": { "POSTGRES_USERNAME": "pguser", "POSTGRES_PASSWORD": "foo" } ... }` InfluxDB stores the key-value pairs as secrets that you can access with `secrets.get()`. Once stored, you can't view secret values in InfluxDB. Related guides How to pass secrets when installing a template
stackID	string ID of the stack to update. To apply templates to an existing stack in the organization, use the `stackID` parameter. If you apply templates without providing a stack ID, InfluxDB initializes a new stack with all new resources. To find a stack ID, use the InfluxDB `/api/v2/stacks` API endpoint to list stacks. Related guides Stacks View stacks
	object A template object to apply. A template object has a `contents` property with an array of InfluxDB resource configurations. Pass `template` to apply only one template object. If you use `template`, you can't use the `templates` parameter. If you want to apply multiple template objects, use `templates` instead.
	Array of objects A list of template objects to apply. A template object has a `contents` property with an array of InfluxDB resource configurations. Use the `templates` parameter to apply multiple template objects. If you use `templates`, you can't use the `template` parameter.

Users

Manage users for your organization. Users are those with access to InfluxDB. To grant a user permission to access data, add them as a member of an organization and provide them with an API token.

User sessions with authorizations

Optionally, you can scope an authorization (and its API token) to a user. If a user signs in with username and password, creating a user session, the session carries the permissions granted by all the user's authorizations. To create a user session, use the POST /api/v2/signin endpoint.

Retrieve the currently authenticated user

Update a password

Updates the password for the signed-in user.

This endpoint represents the third step in the following three-step process to let a user with a user session update their password:

Pass the user's Basic authentication credentials to the POST /api/v2/signin endpoint to create a user session and generate a session cookie.
From the response in the first step, extract the session cookie (Set-Cookie) header.
Pass the following in a request to the PUT /api/v2/me/password endpoint:
- The Set-Cookie header from the second step
- The Authorization Basic header with the user's Basic authentication credentials
- {"password": "NEW_PASSWORD"} in the request body

InfluxDB Cloud

Doesn't let you manage user passwords through the API. Use the InfluxDB Cloud user interface (UI) to update your password.

Create a user

Creates a user that can access InfluxDB. Returns the user.

Use this endpoint to create a user that can sign in to start a user session through one of the following interfaces:

InfluxDB UI
/api/v2/signin InfluxDB API endpoint
InfluxDB CLI

This endpoint represents the first two steps in a four-step process to allow a user to authenticate with a username and password, and then access data in an organization:

Create a user: send a POST request to POST /api/v2/users. The name property is required.
Extract the user ID (id property) value from the API response for step 1.
Create an authorization (and API token) for the user: send a POST request to POST /api/v2/authorizations, passing the user ID (id) from step 2.
Create a password for the user: send a POST request to POST /api/v2/users/USER_ID/password, passing the user ID from step 2.

Write

Write time series data to buckets.

Write data

Writes data to a bucket.

Use this endpoint to send data in line protocol format to InfluxDB.

InfluxDB Cloud

Does the following when you send a write request:
1. Validates the request and queues the write.
2. If queued, responds with success (HTTP 2xx status code); error otherwise.
3. Handles the delete asynchronously and reaches eventual consistency.
To ensure that InfluxDB Cloud handles writes and deletes in the order you request them, wait for a success response (HTTP 2xx status code) before you send the next request.

Because writes and deletes are asynchronous, your change might not yet be readable when you receive the response.

InfluxDB OSS

Validates the request and handles the write synchronously.
If all points were written successfully, responds with HTTP 2xx status code; otherwise, returns the first line that failed.

Required permissions

write-buckets or write-bucket BUCKET_ID.

BUCKET_ID is the ID of the destination bucket.

Rate limits (with InfluxDB Cloud)

write rate limits apply. For more information, see limits and adjustable quotas.

query Parameters

bucket required	string A bucket name or ID. InfluxDB writes all points in the batch to the specified bucket.
org required	string An organization name or ID. InfluxDB Cloud Doesn't use the `org` parameter or `orgID` parameter. Writes data to the bucket in the organization associated with the authorization (API token). InfluxDB OSS Requires either the `org` parameter or the `orgID` parameter. If you pass both `orgID` and `org`, they must both be valid. Writes data to the bucket in the specified organization.
orgID	string An organization ID. InfluxDB Cloud Doesn't use the `org` parameter or `orgID` parameter. Writes data to the bucket in the organization associated with the authorization (API token). InfluxDB OSS Requires either the `org` parameter or the `orgID` parameter. If you pass both `orgID` and `org`, they must both be valid. Writes data to the bucket in the specified organization.
precision	string (WritePrecision) Enum: "ms" "s" "us" "ns" The precision for unix timestamps in the line protocol batch.

header Parameters

Accept	string Default: application/json Value: "application/json" The content type that the client can understand. Writes only return a response body if they fail--for example, due to a formatting problem or quota limit. InfluxDB Cloud Returns only `application/json` for format and limit errors. Returns only `text/html` for some quota limit errors. InfluxDB OSS Returns only `application/json` for format and limit errors. Related guides Troubleshoot issues writing data
Content-Encoding	string Default: identity Enum: "gzip" "identity" The compression applied to the line protocol in the request payload. To send a gzip payload, pass `Content-Encoding: gzip` header.
Content-Length	integer The size of the entity-body, in bytes, sent to InfluxDB. If the length is greater than the `max body` configuration option, the server responds with status code `413`.
Content-Type	string Default: text/plain; charset=utf-8 Enum: "text/plain" "text/plain; charset=utf-8" The format of the data in the request body. To send a line protocol payload, pass `Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8`.
Zap-Trace-Span	string Example: baggage,[object Object],span_id,1,trace_id,1 OpenTracing span context

Request Body schema: text/plain

In the request body, provide data in line protocol format.

To send compressed data, do the following:

Use gzip to compress the line protocol data.
In your request, send the compressed data and the Content-Encoding: gzip header.
