@ajithv Thanks for reaching out to us.

Did you check this information: Link

Once you set up influx db with DB scripts provided include in ThingWorx and set Persistence provider as Influx DB, you can use this db for all your operations.

Let me know in case of any question.

What is your default persistent provider here. If default is Influx then whatever data you are persisting that should be save in Influx only.

Write data you mean by whatever data you are receiving on thing property and that property is persistence then it will save on DB. Right? Or you want to write data in some other way.

I am using influx as persistent provider

I got the sollution to view the values written on thing properties.

I am using Command Line interface to view the values in stored in influx db .

Is there any way to host influx as service to view the values stored?

Like SQL can we write a querry for influx in thingworx using thing?
