#### InfluxDB 2.x/1.x compatibility
|
|
If you [upgraded from 1.x to {{< current-version >}}](/influxdb/v2.1/upgrade/v1-to-v2/),
|
|
use the [`influx v1 auth`](/influxdb/v2.1/reference/cli/influx/v1/auth/) commands
|
|
to manage authorizations for the [1.x compatibility API](/influxdb/v2.1/reference/api/influxdb-1x/).
