Delete a database
InfluxDB 3 Core is in Public Alpha
InfluxDB 3 Core is in public alpha and available for testing and feedback, but is not meant for production use. Both the product and this documentation are works in progress. We welcome and encourage your input about your experience with the alpha and invite you to join our public channels for updates and to share feedback.
Use the influxdb3 delete database
command
to delete a database from InfluxDB 3 Core.
Deleting a database cannot be undone
Deleting a database is a destructive action. Once a database is deleted, data stored in that database cannot be recovered.
Provide the following:
Name of the database to delete
InfluxDB 3 Core authorization token
While in alpha, InfluxDB 3 Core does not require an authorization token.
influxdb3 delete database DATABASE_NAME
Enter yes
to confirm that you want to delete the database.
