The essence of the issue appears to be authentication of your credentials.

The organization ID does not look correct to me for InfluxDB 2.0. It looks to me as if you are using organization name. You get the ID from the InfluxDB UI. I may have put guidance in the mcsMQTT manual, but a google search should help you with getting the ID.

I have been able to get data in and out of InfluxDB 1.8. I have been able to get data in InfluxDB 2.0, but have not yet had success with read operations. Reading is only needed in mcsMQTT if you want to view the data using mcsMQTT charting and history features. I suspect most will be using Grafana to read the data.

Thanks Michael McSharry That was the problem. All I had to do was actuallly read the label. It said org ID not org name............. Much appreciated

Great that the solution was easy.
