InfluxDB 3 Core

InfluxDB v2 API client libraries

Use InfluxDB 3 clients to query

InfluxDB 3 supports compatibility endpoints for writing data using InfluxDB v2 and v1 tools. However, the /api/v2/query API endpoint and associated tooling, such as InfluxDB v2 client libraries and the influx CLI, can’t query stored in InfluxDB 3 Core.

InfluxDB 3 client libraries are available that integrate with your code to write and query data stored in InfluxDB 3 Core.

InfluxDB 3 supports many different tools for writing and querying data. Compare tools you can use to interact with InfluxDB 3 Core.

Client libraries for InfluxDB 2.x and 1.8+

InfluxDB client libraries are language-specific tools that integrate with InfluxDB APIs. InfluxDB v2 client libraries use InfluxDB /api/v2 endpoints and work with InfluxDB 2.x API compatibility endpoints.

Functionality varies among client libraries. InfluxDB client libraries are maintained by the InfluxDB community. For specifics about a client library, see the library’s GitHub repository.
