## Examples

#### Authentication credentials

The examples below assume your InfluxDB **host**, **organization**, and **token** are
provided by either the [active `influx` CLI configuration](/influxdb/cloud/reference/cli/influx/#provide-required-authentication-credentials) or by environment variables (`INFLUX_HOST`, `INFLUX_ORG`, and `INFLUX_TOKEN`).
If you do not have a CLI configuration set up or the environment variables set, include these required credentials for each command with the following flags:

* `--host`: [InfluxDB host](/influxdb/cloud/reference/urls/)
* `-o, --org` or `--org-id`: InfluxDB organization name or ID
* `-t, --token`: InfluxDB API token

#### Required permissions

Use an [**All Access** token](/influxdb/cloud/admin/tokens/) to retry tasks.

##### Retry a task run

```sh
influx task run retry \
  --task-id 0Xx0oox00XXoxxoo1 \
  --run-id ox0Xx0ooxx00XXoo2
```
