The InfluxDB v3 [`influxdb3-java` Java client library](https://github.com/InfluxCommunity/influxdb3-java) integrates
with Java application code to write and query data stored in {{% product-name %}}.
InfluxDB client libraries provide configurable batch writing of data to {{% product-name %}}.
Use client libraries to construct line protocol data, transform data from other formats
to line protocol, and batch write line protocol data to InfluxDB HTTP APIs.
InfluxDB v3 client libraries can query {{% product-name %}} using SQL or InfluxQL.
The `influxdb3-java` Java client library wraps the Apache Arrow `org.apache.arrow.flight.FlightClient`
in a convenient InfluxDB v3 interface for executing SQL and InfluxQL queries, requesting
server metadata, and retrieving data from {{% product-name %}} using the Flight protocol with gRPC.

#### Example: write and query data
The following example shows how to use `influxdb3-java` to write and query data stored in {{% product-name %}}.
{{% code-placeholders "DATABASE_NAME | DATABASE_TOKEN" %}}
```java
package com.influxdata.demo;
import com.influxdb.v3.client.InfluxDBClient;
import com.influxdb.v3.client.Point;
import com.influxdb.v3.client.query.QueryOptions;
import com.influxdb.v3.client.query.QueryType;
import java.time.Instant;
import java.util.stream.Stream;
public class HelloInfluxDB {
private static final String HOST_URL = "https://{{< influxdb/host >}}"; // your cluster URL
private static final String DATABASE = "DATABASE_NAME"; // your InfluxDB database name
private static final char[] TOKEN = System.getenv("DATABASE_TOKEN"); // a local environment variable that stores your database token
// Create a client instance that writes and queries data in your database.
public static void main(String[] args) {
// Instantiate the client with your InfluxDB credentials
try (InfluxDBClient client = InfluxDBClient.getInstance(HOST_URL, TOKEN, DATABASE)) {
writeData(client);
queryData(client);
}
catch (Exception e) {
System.err.println("An error occurred while connecting to InfluxDB!");
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
// Use the Point class to construct time series data.
private static void writeData(InfluxDBClient client) {
Point point = Point.measurement("temperature")
.setTag("location", "London")
.setField("value", 30.01)
.setTimestamp(Instant.now().minusSeconds(10));
try {
client.writePoint(point);
System.out.println("Data is written to the database.");
}
catch (Exception e) {
System.err.println("Failed to write data to the database.");
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
// Use SQL to query the most recent 10 measurements
private static void queryData(InfluxDBClient client) {
System.out.printf("--------------------------------------------------------%n");
System.out.printf("| %-8s | %-8s | %-30s |%n", "location", "value", "time");
System.out.printf("--------------------------------------------------------%n");
String sql = "select time,location,value from temperature order by time desc limit 10";
try (Stream<Object[]> stream = client.query(sql)) {
stream.forEach(row -> System.out.printf("| %-8s | %-8s | %-30s |%n", row[1], row[2], row[0]));
}
catch (Exception e) {
System.err.println("Failed to query data from the database.");
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
```

{{% /code-placeholders %}}
Replace the following:
- {{% code-placeholder-key %}}`DATABASE_NAME`{{% /code-placeholder-key %}}:
the name of your {{% product-name %}}
[database](/influxdb3/clustered/admin/databases/) to read and write data to
- {{% code-placeholder-key %}}`DATABASE_TOKEN`{{% /code-placeholder-key %}}: a
local environment variable that stores your
[token](/influxdb3/clustered/admin/tokens/database/)--the token must have
read and write permissions on the specified database.
### Run the example to write and query data
1. Build an executable JAR for the project--for example, using Maven:
<!--pytest.mark.skip-->
```bash
mvn package
```
2. In your terminal, run the `java` command to write and query data in your database:
<!--pytest.mark.skip-->
```bash
java \
--add-opens=java.base/java.nio=org.apache.arrow.memory.core,ALL-UNNAMED \
-jar target/PROJECT_NAME.jar
```
Include the following in your command:
- [`--add-opens=java.base/java.nio=org.apache.arrow.memory.core,ALL-UNNAMED`](https://arrow.apache.org/docs/java/install.html#id3): with Java version 9 or later and Apache Arrow version 16 or later, exposes JDK internals for Arrow.
For more options, see the [Apache Arrow Java install documentation](https://arrow.apache.org/docs/java/install.html).
- `-jar target/PROJECT_NAME.jar`: your `.jar` file to run.
The output is the newly written data from your {{< product-name >}} database.

## Importing the client
The `influxdb3-java` client library package provides
`com.influxdb.v3.client` classes for constructing, writing, and querying data
stored in {{< product-name >}}.
## API reference
- [Interface InfluxDBClient](#interface-influxdbclient)
- [Initialize with credential parameters](#initialize-with-credential-parameters)
- [InfluxDBClient instance methods](#influxdbclient-instance-methods)
- [InfluxDBClient.writePoint](#influxdbclientwritepoint)
- [InfluxDBClient.query](#influxdbclientquery)
## InfluxDBClient interface
`InfluxDBClient` provides an interface for interacting with InfluxDB APIs for writing and querying data.
The `InfluxDBClient.getInstance` constructor initializes and returns a client instance with the following:
- A _write client_ configured for writing to the database.
- An Arrow _Flight client_ configured for querying the database.
To initialize a client, call `getInstance` and pass your credentials as one of
the following types:
- [parameters](#initialize-with-credential-parameters)
- a [`ClientConfig`](https://github.com/InfluxCommunity/influxdb3-java/blob/main/src/main/java/com/influxdb/v3/client/config/ClientConfig.java)
- a [database connection string](#initialize-using-a-database-connection-string)
### Initialize with credential parameters
{{% code-placeholders "host | database | token" %}}
```java
static InfluxDBClient getInstance(@Nonnull final String host,
@Nullable final char[] token,
@Nullable final String database)
```
{{% /code-placeholders %}}
- {{% code-placeholder-key %}}`host`{{% /code-placeholder-key %}} (string): The host URL of the InfluxDB instance.
- {{% code-placeholder-key %}}`database`{{% /code-placeholder-key %}} (string): The [database](/influxdb3/clustered/admin/databases/) to use for writing and querying.
- {{% code-placeholder-key %}}`token`{{% /code-placeholder-key %}} (char array): A [database token](/influxdb3/clustered/admin/tokens/database/) with read/write permissions.
#### Example: initialize with credential parameters
{{% code-placeholders "DATABASE_NAME | DATABASE_TOKEN" %}}
```java
package com.influxdata.demo;
import com.influxdb.v3.client.InfluxDBClient;
import com.influxdb.v3.client.Point;
import com.influxdb.v3.client.query.QueryOptions;
import com.influxdb.v3.client.query.QueryType;
import java.time.Instant;
import java.util.stream.Stream;
public class HelloInfluxDB {
private static final String HOST_URL = "https://{{< influxdb/host >}}";
private static final String DATABASE = "DATABASE_NAME";
private static final char[] TOKEN = System.getenv("DATABASE_TOKEN");
// Create a client instance, and then write and query data in InfluxDB.
public static void main(String[] args) {
try (InfluxDBClient client = InfluxDBClient.getInstance(HOST_URL, DATABASE_TOKEN, DATABASE)) {
writeData(client);
queryData(client);
}
catch (Exception e) {
System.err.println("An error occurred while connecting to InfluxDB!");
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
```
{{% /code-placeholders %}}
Replace the following:
- {{% code-placeholder-key %}}`DATABASE_NAME`{{% /code-placeholder-key %}}:
your {{% product-name %}} [database](/influxdb3/clustered/admin/databases/)
- {{% code-placeholder-key %}}`DATABASE_TOKEN`{{% /code-placeholder-key %}}: a
[database token](/influxdb3/clustered/admin/tokens/database/) that has
the necessary permissions on the specified database.
#### Default tags
To include default [tags](/influxdb3/clustered/reference/glossary/#tag) in
all written data, pass a `Map` of tag keys and values.
```java
InfluxDBClient getInstance(@Nonnull final String host,
@Nullable final char[] token,
@Nullable final String database,
@Nullable Map<String, String> defaultTags)
```
### Initialize using a database connection string
{{% code-placeholders "DATABASE_NAME | API_TOKEN" %}}
```java
"https://{{< influxdb/host >}}"
+ "?token=DATABASE_TOKEN&amp;database=DATABASE_NAME"
```
{{% /code-placeholders %}}
Replace the following:
- {{% code-placeholder-key %}}`DATABASE_NAME`{{% /code-placeholder-key %}}:
your {{% product-name %}} [database](/influxdb3/clustered/admin/databases/)
- {{% code-placeholder-key %}}`DATABASE_TOKEN`{{% /code-placeholder-key %}}: a
[database token](/influxdb3/clustered/admin/tokens/database/) that has
the necessary permissions on the specified database.
### InfluxDBClient instance methods
#### InfluxDBClient.writePoint
To write points as line protocol to a database:
1. [Initialize the `client`](#initialize-with-credential-parameters)--your
token must have write permission on the specified database.
2. Use the `com.influxdb.v3.client.Point` class to create time series data.
3. Call the `client.writePoint()` method to write points as line protocol in your
database.
```java
// Use the Point class to construct time series data.
// Call client.writePoint to write the point in your database.
private static void writeData(InfluxDBClient client) {
Point point = Point.measurement("temperature")
.setTag("location", "London")
.setField("value", 30.01)
.setTimestamp(Instant.now().minusSeconds(10));
try {
client.writePoint(point);
System.out.println("Data written to the database.");
}
catch (Exception e) {
System.err.println("Failed to write data to the database.");
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
```
#### InfluxDBClient.query
To query data and process the results:
1. [Initialize the `client`](#initialize-with-credential-parameters)--the
token must have read permission on the database you want to query.
2. Call `client.query()` and provide your SQL query as a string.
3. Use the result stream's built-in iterator to process row data.
```java
// Query the latest 10 measurements using SQL
private static void queryData(InfluxDBClient client) {
System.out.printf("--------------------------------------------------------%n");
System.out.printf("| %-8s | %-8s | %-30s |%n", "location", "value", "time");
System.out.printf("--------------------------------------------------------%n");
String sql = "select time,location,value from temperature order by time desc limit 10";
try (Stream<Object[]> stream = client.query(sql)) {
stream.forEach(row -> System.out.printf("| %-8s | %-8s | %-30s |%n", row[1], row[2], row[0]));
}
catch (Exception e) {
System.err.println("Failed to query data from the database.");
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
