In this post, we recap the week's most interesting InfluxDB Kapacitor and TICK-stack related issues, workarounds, how-tos and Q&A from GitHub, IRC and the InfluxDB Google Group that you might have missed. When using an INTO query to move data to a new measurement, it's essential to use GROUP BY * to preserve tags as tags instead of converting them to fields. Streaming or joining stream data with shifted stream data in Kapacitor can be problematic for large time ranges, and it's recommended to use batch tasks instead. InfluxDB queries also require double-quoting identifiers that are also InfluxQL keywords.
