influx repl
This page documents an earlier version of InfluxDB OSS. InfluxDB 3 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.
Removed in InfluxDB 2.0 beta-16
The influx repl command was removed in InfluxDB 2.0 beta-16.
To use the Flux REPL, build the REPL from source.
For more information, see the Flux GitHub repository.
The influx repl command opens an interactive Read-Eval-Print Loop (REPL)
from which you can run Flux commands.
Usage
influx repl [flags]Use ctrl + d to exit the REPL.
To use the Flux REPL, you must first authenticate with a token.
