Update a database token | Use the [`influxctl token update` command](/influxdb3/cloud-dedicated/reference/cli/influxctl/token/update/) or the [Management HTTP API](/influxdb3/cloud-dedicated/api/management/) to update a database token's permissions in your InfluxDB Cloud Dedicated cluster. |

Use the influxctl
CLI
or the Management HTTP API
to update a database token's permissions {{< product-name omit=" Clustered" >}} cluster.
{{< tabs-wrapper >}} {{% tabs %}} influxctl Management API {{% /tabs %}} {{% tab-content %}}
Use the influxctl token update
command
to update a database token's permissions in your {{< product-name omit=" Clustered" >}} cluster.
-
If you haven't already, download and install the
influxctl
CLI, and then configure aninfluxctl
connection profile for your cluster. -
To list token IDs, run the
influxctl token list
command in your terminal.influxctl token list
Copy the token ID of the token you want to update.
-
In your terminal, run the
influxctl token update
command and provide the following:-
Token permissions (read and write)
--read-database
: Grants read permissions to the specified database. Repeatable.--write-database
: Grants write permissions to the specified database. Repeatable.
Both of these flags support the
*
wildcard which grants read or write permissions to all databases. Enclose wildcards in single or double quotes--for example:'*'
or"*"
. -
the token ID
-
{{% code-placeholders "DATABASE_NAME|TOKEN_ID" %}}
influxctl token update \
--description "my updated test token" \
--read-database DATABASE_NAME \
--write-database DATABASE_NAME \
TOKEN_ID
{{% /code-placeholders %}}
Replace the following:
- {{% code-placeholder-key %}}
DATABASE_NAME
{{% /code-placeholder-key %}}: your {{% product-name %}} database- {{% code-placeholder-key %}}TOKEN ID
{{% /code-placeholder-key %}}: ID of the token to update
{{% /tab-content %}} {{% tab-content %}}
This example uses cURL to send a Management HTTP API request, but you can use any HTTP client.
-
If you haven't already, follow the instructions to install cURL for your system.
-
In your terminal, use cURL to send a request to the following {{% product-name %}} endpoint:
{{% api-endpoint endpoint="https://console.influxdata.com/api/v0/accounts/ACCOUNT_ID/clusters/CLUSTER_ID/tokens/TOKEN_ID" method="patch" api-ref="/influxdb3/cloud-dedicated/api/management/#operation/UpdateDatabaseToken" %}}
In the URL, provide the following:
ACCOUNT_ID
: The ID of the account that the cluster belongs to (see how to list cluster details).CLUSTER_ID
: The ID of the cluster that you want to manage (see how to list cluster details).TOKEN_ID
: The ID of the database token that you want to update (see how to list token details).
Provide the following request headers:
Accept: application/json
to ensure the response body is JSON contentContent-Type: application/json
to indicate the request body is JSON contentAuthorization: Bearer
and a Management API token for your cluster (see how to create a management token for Management API requests).
In the request body, provide the following parameters:
permissions
: an array of token permissions (read or write) objects:"action"
: Specifyread
orwrite
permission to the database."resource"
: Specify the database name.
description
: Provide a description of the token.
The following example shows how to use the Management API to update a token's permissions:
{{% code-placeholders "DATABASE_NAME|ACCOUNT_ID|CLUSTER_ID|MANAGEMENT_TOKEN" %}}
curl \
--location "https://console.influxdata.com/api/v0/accounts/ACCOUNT_ID/clusters/CLUSTER_ID/tokens/TOKEN_ID" \
--request PATCH \
--header "Accept: application/json" \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--header "Authorization: Bearer MANAGEMENT_TOKEN" \
--data '{
"description": "my updated test token",
"permissions": [
{
"action": "read",
"resource": "DATABASE_NAME"
},
{
"action": "write",
"resource": "DATABASE_NAME"
}
]
}'
Replace the following in your request:
- {{% code-placeholder-key %}}
ACCOUNT_ID
{{% /code-placeholder-key %}}: the ID of the {{% product-name %}} account to create the database token for - {{% code-placeholder-key %}}
CLUSTER_ID
{{% /code-placeholder-key %}}: the ID of the {{% product-name %}} cluster to create the database token for - {{% code-placeholder-key %}}
MANAGEMENT TOKEN
{{% /code-placeholder-key %}}: a management token for your {{% product-name %}} cluster - {{% code-placeholder-key %}}
DATABASE_NAME
{{% /code-placeholder-key %}}: a {{% product-name %}} database that the token will have read or write permission to
{{% /code-placeholders %}}
{{% /tab-content %}} {{< /tabs-wrapper >}}
{{% note %}}
Existing permissions are replaced on update
When updating token permissions, the existing permissions are replaced by the new permissions specified in the update command. To retain existing permissions, include them in the update command. {{% /note %}}
Examples
- Update a token with read and write access to a database
- Update a token with read and write access to all databases
- Update a token with read-only access to a database
- Update a token with read-only access to multiple databases
- Update a token with mixed permissions to multiple databases
In the examples below, replace the following:
- {{% code-placeholder-key %}}
DATABASE_NAME
{{% /code-placeholder-key %}}: your {{< product-name >}} database - {{% code-placeholder-key %}}
DATABASE2_NAME
{{% /code-placeholder-key %}}: your {{< product-name >}} database - {{% code-placeholder-key %}}
TOKEN ID
{{% /code-placeholder-key %}}: ID of the token to update - {{% code-placeholder-key %}}
ACCOUNT_ID
{{% /code-placeholder-key %}}: the ID of the {{% product-name %}} account to create the database token for - {{% code-placeholder-key %}}
CLUSTER_ID
{{% /code-placeholder-key %}}: the ID of the {{% product-name %}} cluster to create the database token for - {{% code-placeholder-key %}}
MANAGEMENT TOKEN
{{% /code-placeholder-key %}}: a management token for your {{% product-name %}} cluster
