influx export stack
This page documents an earlier version of InfluxDB. InfluxDB v2.1 is the latest stable version. View this page in the v2.1 documentation.
The influx export stack command exports all resources associated with a stack as a template.
All metadata.name fields remain the same.
To export resources as a template, you must use the Operator token created for the initial InfluxDB user or an All-Access token. For information about creating an All-Access API token, see Create an API token.
