i try to replicate this code in a simple nodejs code
```auto
curl -XPOST "http://localhost:9999/api/v2/write?org=YOUR_ORG&bucket=YOUR_BUCKET&precision=s" \
--header "Authorization: Token YOURAUTHTOKEN" \
--data-raw "mem,host=host1 used_percent=23.43234543 1556896326"
```
```auto
const axios = require('axios')
const qs = require('qs')
async function influxd(){
const options = {
url: 'http://ec2-public-ip:9999/api/v2/write?org=something&bucket=something&precisions=s',
method: 'POST',
headers: {
'Authorization': 'Token 1LNrO7r1NPWDAwYtZpl-0Zd1EjSSwPhimoKZ8PUcTSbFFhqCIUUjYVYIA6ReFfqYUMuqpIPF1x33-pCcsp99fA==',
'Content-Type': "text/plain; charset=utf-8"
},
timeout: 0,
'body': qs.stringify('cpu,host=host1 usage_user=3.8234,usage_system=4.23874 1556892726597397000')
}
const response = await axios(options).catch(error=>console.log(error))
return response
}
```
and i receive this error
```
data: { code: 'invalid', message: 'writing requires points' } },
```
what i’m doing wrong?

A few issues:
- I think the `'body'` parameter should be `data`, and you can just pass it a string. Not sure why you need `qs` here.
- Make sure that your Org uses the orgID and not the org name.
- The timestamp in the line protocol you’re submitting uses nanosecond precision, so remove the `precisions=s` from the URL.
The following code worked for me:
```auto
const axios = require('axios')
async function influxd(){
const options = {
url: 'http://localhost:9999/api/v2/write?org=org&bucket=bucket',
method: 'POST',
headers: {
'Authorization': 'Token token',
'Content-Type': "text/plain; charset=utf-8"
},
timeout: 0,
data: 'cpu,host=host1 usage_user=3.8234,usage_system=4.23874 1574786860084000000'
}
const response = await axios(options).catch(error=>console.log(error))
return response
}
```
