Rename a table
Use the influxctl table rename command
to rename a table in your InfluxDB cluster.
After renaming a table, write and query requests using the old table name are routed to the same table.
Rename a database using the influxctl CLI
influxctl table rename DATABASE_NAME CURRENT_TABLE_NAME NEW_TABLE_NAMEReplace the following:
DATABASE_NAME: Name of the database the table is inCURRENT_TABLE_NAME: Name of the table to changeNEW_TABLE_NAME: New name for the table
Renamed table retains its ID
The table ID remains the same after renaming. When you list tables, you’ll see the new name associated with the original table ID.
