Description
__Proposal:__
Please use the InfluxUI for the data explorer to create an easy way to highlight on the specific data set (or measurement or field) and a simple trash can button to delete the data more easily.
Maybe a request to really delete the data "yes" or "no".
It's so complicated to delete single data using CLI or V2 API.
__Current behavior:__
At the moment there are no Options to delete single Data records (or Measurements or Fields) with InfluxUI or Cloud.
Only the Bucket is deletable with the InfluxUI
__Desired behavior:__
Easier way to delete Data with the InfluxUI and Cloud
__Alternatives considered:__
Describe other solutions or features you considered.
See Proposal above
__Use case:__
Why is this important (helps with prioritizing requests)?
It's a awkward way to delete individual records using the CLI or v2 API. Above all, the whole thing makes the use of InfluxDB very complicated. Some InfluxDB users share this opinion with me.
A simple click on the Data in the InfluxUI Data Explorer with a Trash Button is modern and easy to use.
Contributor guide
Research direction
The issue names InfluxUI, Cloud, the data explorer, and deletion of measurements, records, or fields, but no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the data explorer and existing bucket-delete flow; done means users can select the requested data and confirm its deletion in InfluxUI and Cloud.
