Invalid json structure when Mapping unmapped buckets influx DB

InfluxDB 2
, ,
1

Hi there,

I want to be able to use influx QL on my v2 database. I tried to follow this documentation: Query data with InfluxQL | InfluxDB OSS v2 Documentation

I viewed the DBRP mappings succesfully:

{
“content”:
}
I suppose it’s blank because there are none, which makes sense.

Then I tried to create a DBRP mapping with:
c

curl --request POST "http://192.168.1.223:8089/api/v2/dbrps" --header "Authorization: Token -my_token" --header "Content-type: application/json" --data "{"bucketID": "someID", "database": "ambientQuality", "default": true, "orgID": "3ea1813c523490d1", "retention_policy": ""}"

But I always get the same response:

{
“code”: “invalid”,
“message”: “invalid json structure: invalid character ‘b’ looking for beginning of object key string”
}

I have also tried doing the same thing using python requests:

import requests
import logging


logging.basicConfig(level=logging.DEBUG)

url = 'http://192.168.1.223:8089/api/v2/dbrps'
myobj = {"bucketID": "c26f45b24dbd038b", "database": "ambientQuality", "default": True, "orgID": "someID", "retention_policy": ""}
header1={"Authorization":"Token -someToken",  "Content-type": "application/json"}

x = requests.post(url, data = myobj, headers=header1)

print(x.text)

DEBUG:urllib3.connectionpool:Starting new HTTP connection (1): 192.168.1.223:8089
DEBUG:urllib3.connectionpool:http://192.168.1.223:8089 “POST /api/v2/dbrps HTTP/1.1” 400 114
{
“code”: “invalid”,
“message”: “invalid json structure: invalid character ‘b’ looking for beginning of value”
}

Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong? The problem seems to be that the json response is not correctly formated.

PS: the port is 8089. I did it because port 8086 is being used by Influxdb v1.8
