No access to tasks from Influx Cloud Interface

1

Hi all,

I’m using InfluxDb Cloud 2 and I’d like to create a few tasks. Problem is that the interface doesn’t expose the Task functionality to me even though the documentation says it should. I may be able to use the CLI but I’d prefer the UI if possible.

Also - I don’t have access to the create task functionality through Cronograf either - that just let’s me list the tasks I have running.

Hello @Timmwardion,
Chronograf is used with 1.x and doesnt support task creation.

When I login into Cloud 2 I can still see the the task UI.
Can you please share your screenshots of what you’re seeing and the docs of what you expect to see?

Thank you

These docs talk about being able to create a task in the ui or from the data explorer. I can’t do either. No navigation option on the left. No ability to save as task in the data explorer.
