HAVING clause

The HAVING clause places conditions on results created by an aggregate operation on groups. The HAVING clause must follow the GROUP BY clause and precede the ORDER BY clause.

The WHERE clause filters rows based on specified conditions before the aggregate operation. The HAVING clause filters rows based on specified conditions after the aggregate operation has taken place.

Syntax

SELECT_clause FROM_clause [WHERE_clause] [GROUP_BY_clause] [HAVING_clause] [ORDER_BY_clause] 

Examples

Return rows with an aggregate value greater than a specified number

SELECT
  MEAN("water_level") AS "mean_water_level", "location"
FROM
  "h2o_feet" 
GROUP BY
  "location"
HAVING
  "mean_water_level" > 5

InfluxDB Docker latest tag changing to InfluxDB 3 Core

On February 3, 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.
