## Examples

#### Authentication credentials

The examples below assume your InfluxDB **host**, **organization**, and **token** are provided by either the [active `influx` CLI configuration](/influxdb/cloud-serverless/reference/cli/influx/#provide-required-authentication-credentials) or by environment variables (`INFLUX_HOST`, `INFLUX_ORG`, and `INFLUX_TOKEN`). If you do not have a CLI configuration set up or the environment variables set, include these required credentials for each command with the following flags:

-   `--host`: [InfluxDB host](/influxdb/cloud-serverless/reference/urls/)
-   `-o, --org` or `--org-id`: InfluxDB organization name or ID
-   `-t, --token`: InfluxDB API token

##### Set a DBRP mapping as default

```sh
influx v1 dbrp update \
  --id 12ab34cd56ef78 \
  --default
```

##### Update the retention policy of a DBRP mapping

```sh
influx v1 dbrp update \
  --id 12ab34cd56ef78 \
  --rp new-rp-name
```
