Export a task
API token hashing is enabled by default in InfluxDB OSS 2.9.0
Stronger token security: tokens are stored as hashes on disk, so a copy of the database file doesn’t expose usable tokens. Existing tokens are hashed on first startup and the original strings can’t be recovered afterward — capture any plaintext tokens you still need before you upgrade.
For more information, see Token hashing.
InfluxDB lets you export tasks from the InfluxDB user interface (UI). Tasks are exported as downloadable JSON files.
Export a task in the InfluxDB UI
In the navigation menu on the left, select Tasks.
In the list of tasks, hover over the task you would like to export and click the icon that appears.
Select Export.
Downloading or save the task export file using one of the following options:
- Click Download JSON to download the exported JSON file.
- Click Save as template to save the export file as a task template.
- Click Copy to Clipboard to copy the raw JSON content to your machine’s clipboard.
