Manage tables
Manage tables in your InfluxDB cluster. A table is a collection of related data stored in table format.
In previous versions of InfluxDB and in the context of InfluxQL, tables are known as “measurements.”
Create a table
Use the influxctl table create command to create a new table in a specified database your InfluxDB cluster. Provide the database name and a table name.
influxctl table create <DATABASE_NAME> <TABLE_NAME>
List tables
Use the influxctl table list command, the SHOW TABLES SQL statement, or the SHOW MEASUREMENTS InfluxQL statement to list tables in a database.
CLI
influxctl table list <DATABASE_NAME>
SQL
SHOW TABLES
InfluxQL
SHOW MEASUREMENTS
Delete a table
Use the Admin UI or the influxctl table delete command to delete a table from a database in your InfluxDBed cluster.
influxctl table delete <DATABASE_NAME> <TABLE_NAME>
