Description
The influx CLI documentation describes an "-import" option having the description "Import a previous database export from file".
However, I cannot find docs on support for the influx CLI tool having such export functionality.
There are influxd commands for backup and restore, but is the backup an "export" usable by the influx CLI -import command?
