Hi, I have wrong created tag with double quotes : SENSOR = “DOOR”, instead of SENSOR = DOOR, which I can’t remove. I’m running below command, which does nothing and tag still exists : `influx delete --bucket XXX --predicate '_measurement="XXX" AND SENSOR="\"DOOR\""' --start '1970-01-01T00:00:00Z' --stop '2023-01-01T00:00:00Z` I also tried to remove everything from \_measurement and seems like it worked, but then, when new data arrived this tag appeared again. It’s also visible via `schema.tagValues`. How can I remove that not removing the bucket? ---

Hello @Nenkie76, Welcome! The following worked for me in cloud: ```auto influx delete --bucket test --predicate '_measurement="\"measurement\""' --start 2022-10-01T00:00:00Z --stop 2022-10-08T00:00:00Z ``` ![Screen Shot 2022-10-07 at 1.51.54 PM](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex023/uploads/influxdata/original/2X/d/d8df4f022ccadb6f626e7a8418b6cfc5fc7ed02c.jpeg) ![Screen Shot 2022-10-07 at 1.54.39 PM](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex023/uploads/influxdata/original/2X/3/3f8b12aff971866dc4c7094637645ebb871d0d89.jpeg) What version of InfluxDB are you using?
