Whether you’re using InfluxDB Cloud or InfluxDB OSS, the InfluxDB API provides a simple way to interact with your InfluxDB instance. The InfluxDB v2 API offers a unified approach to querying, writing data to, and assessing the health of your InfluxDB instances. In today’s Tech Tips post, we’re learning about how to create and list buckets. Buckets are named locations in InfluxDB where time series data is written to.
Whether you’re using InfluxDB Cloud or InfluxDB OSS, the InfluxDB API provides a simple way to interact with your InfluxDB instance. The InfluxDB v2 API, the read and write portions are available with InfluxDB v1.8+, offers a unified approach to querying, writing data to, and assessing the health of your InfluxDB instances. In today’s Tech Tips post, we learn how to create and list authentication tokens. Tokens provide secure data flow between an InfluxDB instance and its users.
