I am unable to create my first script. Error message: Error: failed to create script: 404 Not Found: path not found

Even the example given at influx scripts create | InfluxDB OSS v2 Documentation
fails

influx scripts create
-n “example-script” \
-d “a simple example”
-l “flux” \
-s $FLUX_SCRIPT \
–http-debug

Hello @eckarth,
Unfortunately, invokable scripts are only supported in InfluxDB Cloud, not in InfluxDB OSS.

It wold have saved me many hours if the docu would state that.

Oh, I am sorry. I have to admit that I did not read the page carefully enough.
