To upload a large amount of previously existing *historical* data into InfluxDB Cloud,
[contact InfluxData Support](mailto:support@influxdata.com) for assistance.
Well review your ingest rate limits, volume, and existing
[data schema](/influxdb/cloud/reference/key-concepts/data-schema) to ensure the
most efficient migration.
Given our usage-based pricing and because the API is optimized for batched writing, we do not recommend using the API to ingest bulk data.
