Cannot Delete From Cloud Hosted Serverless

1

I just created a new InfluxDB database on the Serverless cloud hosted service, and I’d like to delete data points from a bucket.

I’ve tried every formulation of delete commands, queries, and API calls, but none of them work.

Ex:
influx delete --org-id <snipped> --bucket <snipped> --start 2020-01-01T00:00:00Z --stop 2023-06-09T10:00:00Z  --predicate '_measurement="editor.reload_times"'

I’ve tried similar through the HTTP API. Both of these return success, but don’t actually do anything, and no data is deleted.

I’ve also tried various queries through the query editor, but all of them fail with either syntax issues, or ‘unsupported’:

DROP SERIES ...
DELETE FROM bucket_name;
DELETE * FROM measurement_name

Etc, etc.

How do I actually delete data points?

Any help? … are people able to delete data points? This seems like a really basic feature.

I’ve also tried without any predicate:
influx delete --org-id <snipped> --bucket <snipped> --start 2020-01-01T00:00:00Z --stop 2023-06-09T10:00:00Z

Even that doesn’t work. :\

Hello? Anyone else having this problem?

Hello @kleptine,
Hmm thank you so much for bringing this to our attention.
First what version of the CLI are you using?
It looks like you need:

If you’re still using that version, can you please submit a bug here:

Thank you!
