##### Run influx CLI on macOS Catalina
macOS Catalina requires downloaded binaries to be signed by registered Apple developers.
Currently, when you first attempt to run `influx`, macOS prevents it from running.
To manually authorize the binary:
1. Attempt to run the `influx`.
2. Open **System Preferences** and click **Security & Privacy**.
3. Under the **General** tab, there is a message about `influx` being blocked.
Click **Open Anyway**.
We are in the process of updating our build process to ensure released binaries are signed by InfluxData.
