influxdb_client.rest.ApiException: (404) when creating invokable script

[HamidKhanamiri]

Python version: 3.10
influxdb_client vesion: 1.34.0
OS: Mac

I am testing the Influxdb python client using local instance of influxdb version 2.1.0. I am able to create/delete buckets, write/read data to/from buckets, update buckets description etc. However, I am running into an exception when trying to create an invokable script. For example, running example below:
https://github.com/influxdata/influxdb-client-python/blob/master/examples/invokable_scripts.py

results in the following outcome. I appreciate any feedback, and hope I have not left out any detail.

using local instance of influxdb version 2.1.0

I believe the scripts API is only available in InfluxDB cloud at this time

Hi @HamidKhanamiri,

the Invokable scripts are only available on the InfluxDB Cloud. For more info see:

• influxdb-client-python/examples/invokable_scripts.py

  Line 2 in 0927944

  How to use Invokable scripts Cloud API to create custom endpoints that query data

Hi @powersj, @bednar thanks for the answers. Would be great if "invokable script api not available on a local InfluxDB instance" was explicitly mentioned in the documents, or the comment line you referred to in the example file, or in the exception message returned by the Python client.
Also, it is a cool feature to have, so that new users doing only prototyping don't have to get a cloud subscription :)

@HamidKhanamiri thanks for your suggestion 👍
