* influx CLI 2.1.0+
* InfluxDB Cloud only

This page documents an earlier version of InfluxDB OSS.[InfluxDB 3 Core](/influxdb3/core/) is the latest stable version.

#### Works with InfluxDB Cloud bucket schemas

`influx bucket-schema` and its subcommands work with [InfluxDB Cloud bucket schemas](/influxdb/cloud/admin/buckets/bucket-schema).
This feature is not available in InfluxDB OSS v2.3.

The `influx bucket-schema list` command lists the schemas of an
InfluxDB bucket that has the [`explicit` schema-type](/influxdb/cloud/reference/cli/influx/bucket/create/#create-a-bucket-with-an-explicit-schema).

## Usage

```sh
influx bucket-schema list [flags]
```

## Examples

#### Authentication credentials

The examples below assume your InfluxDB **host**, **organization**, and **token** are
provided by either the [active `influx` CLI configuration](/influxdb/v2/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/v2/reference/urls/)
* `-o, --org` or `--org-id`: InfluxDB organization name or ID
* `-t, --token`: InfluxDB API token

### List all schemas of a bucket and print column information

```sh
influx bucket-schema list \
  --bucket example-bucket
  --extended-output
```

### Print column details for a single measurement

```sh
influx bucket-schema list \
  --bucket example-bucket \
  --name cpu \
  --extended-output
```
