# influx config rm

-   influx CLI 2.0.0+
-   InfluxDB 2.0.0+

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

#### 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/v2/admin/tokens/#token-hashing).

The `influx config rm` command removes an InfluxDB connection configuration from the `configs` file (by default, stored at `~/.influxdbv2/configs`).

## Usage

```
influx config rm <config-name> [flags]
```

#### Command aliases

`rm`, `remove`, `delete`

## Flags

| Flag |  | Description | Input type | Maps to ? |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| -h | --help | Help for the delete command |  |  |

|  | --json | Output data as JSON (default false) |  | INFLUX_OUTPUT_JSON |
