- influx CLI 2.0.0+
- InfluxDB 2.0.0+
- Updated in CLI 2.5.0
The influx config create command creates a InfluxDB connection configuration and stores it in a local file:
| OS/Platform | CLI config file path |
|---|---|
| macOS | ~/.influxdbv2/configs |
| Linux (installed as binary) | ~/.influxdbv2/configs |
| Linux (installed as service) | ~/var/lib/influxdb/configs |
| Windows | %USERPROFILE%.influxdbv2\configs |
| Docker (DockerHub) | /etc/influxdb2/configs |
| Docker (Quay.io) | /root/.influxdbv2/configs |
| Kubernetes | /etc/influxdb2/configs |
To view CLI connection configurations after creating them, use influx config list.
Note: If you create multiple connection configurations (for example, separate admin and user configurations), use influx config

Examples
- Create a connection configuration and set it active
- Create a connection configuration without setting it active
- Create a connection configuration that uses a username and password
Create a connection configuration and set it active
influx config create --active \-n config-name \-u http://localhost:8086 \-t mySuP3rS3cr3tT0keN \-o example-org
Create a connection configuration without setting it active
influx config create \-n config-name \-u http://localhost:8086 \-t mySuP3rS3cr3tT0keN \-o example-org
Create a connection configuration that uses a username and password
The influx CLI 2.4.0+ lets you create connection configurations that authenticate with InfluxDB OSS 2.4+ using the username and password combination that you would use to log into the InfluxDB user interface (UI). The CLI retrieves a session cookie and stores it, unencrypted, in your configs path.
Use the --username-password, -p option to provide your username and password using the <username>:<password> syntax. If no password is provided, the CLI will prompt for a password after each command that requires authentication.
influx config create \-n config-name \-u http://localhost:8086 \-p example-user:example-password \-o example-org
