#### Use influx CLI server-config

`influxd print-config` is deprecated in InfluxDB v2.2.

To display the runtime server configuration, use the [`influx server-config` command](/influxdb/v2.2/reference/cli/influx/server-config/)
or the [`/api/v2/config`](/influxdb/v2.2/api/#operation/GetConfig) InfluxDB API endpoint.
For more information, see [how to view your server configuration](/influxdb/v2.2/reference/config-options/#view-your-runtime-server-configuration).
{{% /warn %}}

`influxd print-config` does not output the configuration of the running server. Rather, it evaluates the current environment, config file, and _flags passed to the `influxd print-config` command_. It is unaware of configuration options passed to the `influxd` command at runtime.

For example, with the following configuration value:
```sh
# Configuration file
...
log-level: info
...
```

and `--log-level` provided at startup:

```
influxd --log-level warn
```

`influxd print-config` displays

```sh
...
log-level: info
...
```

`influxd print-config log-level warn` displays

```sh
...
log-level: warn
...
```

## Usage

```
influxd print-config [flags]
```
