Examples

Create a schema using the influx CLI

  --name temperature \
  --columns-file columns.csv

Create a schema and print column information

influx bucket-schema create \
  --bucket example-bucket \

Create a schema with columns format

By default, InfluxDB attempts to detect the columns file format. If your file's extension doesn't match the format, set the format with the columns-format flag.

influx bucket-schema create \
  --bucket example-bucket \
  --name cpu \
  --columns-file columns.json \
  --columns-format ndjson

influx bucket-schema create \
  --bucket example-bucket \
  --name cpu \
  --columns-file columns.txt \
  --columns-format csv
