InfluxData DBRPs API
The InfluxDB 1.x data model includes [databases](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/v1.8/concepts/glossary/#database)and [retention policies](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/v1.8/concepts/glossary/#retention-policy-rp).InfluxDB 2.x replaces databases and retention policies with buckets.To support InfluxDB 1.x query and write patterns in InfluxDB 2.x,databases and retention policies are mapped to buckets using thedatabase and retention policy (DBRP) mapping service.The DBRP mapping service uses the database and retention policyspecified in 1.x compatibility API requests to route operations to a bucket.### Related guides- [Database and retention policy mapping](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/cloud/reference/api/influxdb-1x/dbrp/)
