I thought it’s easy and straightforward to use the csv import / export functionality in InfluxDB’s UI. I was wrong.
When I click on the CSV download button, I get a nice csv file.
But when trying to provide this file to the “Upload a csv” importer, I get the message
Failed to upload the selected CSV: runtime error @3:14-3:32: to: no column with label _measurement exists
BTW: You can’t copy the error message, which makes me wonder whether the developers are really using their own products a lot.
What’s the purpose of providing a csv file download that’s incompatible to the import function? How can I fix this?
