Summary

This tutorial translates subqueries from InfluxQL in InfluxDB version 1.x into Flux, a data scripting and functional query language in InfluxDB version 1.8 and greater, to help users understand how to use Flux for more sophisticated queries. The translation covers three use cases: performing functions on functions on functions, performing additional analysis on the results of another query, and placing specific conditions on the results of another query. These translations demonstrate how Flux allows users to return data in organized groups or tables, perform joins and math across measurements, and apply filters to results.
