Hi,
I’m trying to insert data to influxdb2 using API.
I tried but facing some error.
Can you help where I’m doing wrong.
Hi @debnath,
Nice to meet you digitally. I took a look and managed to get an example working with some of your data. I have attached an export of my Postman collection:
{
"info": {
"_postman_id": "8dbb3787-d3e2-444b-98a7-d6edb794f015",
"name": "Influx",
"schema": "https://schema.getpostman.com/json/collection/v2.1.0/collection.json"
},
"item": [
{
"name": "List Buckets",
"protocolProfileBehavior": {
"disableBodyPruning": true
},
"request": {
"method": "GET",
"header": [
{
"key": "Authorization",
"value": "Token mytoken"
}
],
"body": {
"mode": "raw",
"raw": ""
},
"url": {
"raw": "localhost:8086/api/v2/buckets",
"host": [
"localhost"
],
"port": "8086",
"path": [
"api",
"v2",
"buckets"
]
}
},
"response": []
},
{
"name": "Write Example",
"request": {
"method": "POST",
"header": [
{
"key": "Authorization",
"value": "Token mytoken"
}
],
"body": {
"mode": "raw",
"raw": "sensor_data_665,assetId=TLM0201 originalTime=1633339479,featureName=\"TST\",sensorID=\"SENSOR555\" 1633339479"
},
"url": {
"raw": "localhost:8086/api/v2/write?bucket=sensors&precision=s&org=ProjectOWL",
"host": [
"localhost"
],
"port": "8086",
"path": [
"api",
"v2",
"write"
],
"query": [
{
"key": "bucket",
"value": "sensors"
},
{
"key": "precision",
"value": "s"
},
{
"key": "org",
"value": "ProjectOWL"
}
]
}
},
"response": []
}
]
}
I believe the main reason why current tests are failing is due to line protocol format:
Based on the docs your line protocol structure should look like this:
measurement,<tag>=value,<tag>=value <field>=value,<field>=value <time-stamp>
Notice in line protocol apart from <measurement> spaces are important for defining separation between tags and fields.
@Jay_Clifford Thank you so much.
