Examples

Create a replication stream

Create a remote connection, if you haven't already.
Use influx remote list to get the ID for the remote you want to replicate data to.
sh
```
$ influx remote list
ID			        Name		Org ID
0ooxX0xxXo0x 	    myremote    [...]
```

Create the replication:

influx replication create \
  --name myreplication
  --local-bucket example-local-bucket
  --remote-bucket example-remote-bucket
  --remote-id 0ooxX0xxXo0x
