Delete data

The InfluxDB /api/v2/delete API endpoint has been disabled for InfluxDB Cloud Serverless organizations. Currently, you can't delete data from an InfluxDB Cloud Serverless bucket.

To avoid querying expired or unwanted data, use tags and timestamps for filtering.

When writing data:

• Use a new measurement name when your schema changes.
• Include a tag or tags for versioning your data.

When querying:

• Filter for tag values in your version tags.
• Use time boundaries that exclude old data.

To delete a bucket and all its data, use the InfluxDB /api/v2/buckets API endpoint.
