Thank you

Hello haiph,
You will need to install influx client https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/cloud/tools/influx-cli/?t=Linux

Then give it a try.

Hello Tony,
Are youi using the last version of the script? Also checked that you can reach the Enterprise Manager URL, and that you have Enterprise Plus licensing?

Thanks!
