Use tools and libraries to query data stored in an {{% product-name %}} bucket.

InfluxDB v3 supports the following APIs and languages for querying data:

- Flight+RPC with SQL or InfluxQL.
  Use InfluxDB client libraries and Flight+RPC clients to query with SQL or InfluxQL and retrieve data in [Arrow in-memory format](https://arrow.apache.org/docs/format/Columnar.html).
- Flight SQL with SQL or InfluxQL.
  Use Flight SQL clients to query with SQL or InfluxQL and retrieve data in [Arrow in-memory format](https://arrow.apache.org/docs/format/Columnar.html).
- HTTP `/query` endpoint for InfluxDB v1 compatibility when you bring workloads and code from v1.x to v3.
  Use the `/query` endpoint with InfluxQL and tools such as Telegraf, HTTP clients, and InfluxDB v1 client libraries to query and retrieve data in JSON or CSV format.

{{% warn %}}
#### /api/v2/query endpoint can't query InfluxDB v3

{{% product-name %}} doesn't support the InfluxDB v2 HTTP `/api/v2/query` endpoint and isn't optimized for the Flux query language.
Use SQL or InfluxQL to query data stored in InfluxDB v3.
