List management tokens

Use the Admin UI or the influxctl management list command to list manually-created management tokens.

The InfluxDB Cloud Dedicated administrative UI includes a portal for creating and managing management tokens.

Access the InfluxDB Cloud Dedicated Admin UI at console.influxdata.com. If you don’t have login credentials, contact InfluxData support.

InfluxDB Cloud Dedicated Admin UI management tokens

Use the Management Tokens page to manage tokens for account-level administrative operations:

  • Create and manage management tokens for administrative tasks.
  • View token status, descriptions, and creation dates.
  • Manage permissions for users, databases, and database tokens.
  • Toggle display of inactive tokens.

Management tokens grant permission to perform administrative actions such as managing users, databases, and database tokens.

The Management Tokens portal displays the following information about each token:

  • Status
  • Description
  • Token ID
  • Created date
  • Expiration date

You can Search tokens by description or ID to filter the list and use the sort button and column headers to sort the list.

  1. If you haven’t already, download and install the influxctl CLI.

  2. Run influxctl management list with the following:

influxctl management list --format json

Management token strings are not retrievable

The actual management token string is not printed and is only returned when creating the token.

Revoked tokens are included in output

Revoked tokens still appear when listing management tokens, but they are no longer valid for any operations.

Output formats

The influxctl management list command supports two output formats: table and json. By default, the command outputs the list of tokens formatted as a table. For easier programmatic access to the command output, include --format json with your command to format the token list as JSON.

InfluxDB Docker latest tag changing to InfluxDB 3 Core

On May 27, 2026, the latest tag for InfluxDB Docker images will point to InfluxDB 3 Core. To avoid unexpected upgrades, use specific version tags in your Docker deployments.

If using Docker to install and run InfluxDB, the latest tag will point to InfluxDB 3 Core. To avoid unexpected upgrades, use specific version tags in your Docker deployments. For example, if using Docker to run InfluxDB v2, replace the latest version tag with a specific version tag in your Docker pull command–for example:

docker pull influxdb:2
