Migrate data to InfluxDB
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.
Migrate data to InfluxDB from other InfluxDB instances including by InfluxDB OSS and InfluxDB Cloud.
Migrate data from InfluxDB OSS to other InfluxDB instances
To migrate data from an InfluxDB OSS bucket to another InfluxDB OSS or InfluxDB Cloud bucket, export your data as line protocol and write it to your other InfluxDB bucket.
Migrate data from InfluxDB Cloud to InfluxDB OSS
To migrate data from InfluxDB Cloud to InfluxDB OSS, query the data from InfluxDB Cloud in time-based batches and write the data to InfluxDB OSS.
