Summary

In this weekly post from InfluxDB, the team shares interesting issues, workarounds, and Q&A related to InfluxDB and its TICK-stack components. The query on continuous queries (CQs) explains that CQs generate time ranges that might not be expected by users, and provides a workaround using `time(1w,1d)` instead of just `time(1w)`. Additionally, the post addresses SHOW FIELD KEYS query discrepancies, explaining that this query automatically returns every data type in a field, and notes that data types can only differ across shards. The post also discusses local configuration settings for InfluxDB v1.1, highlighting that section headers are commented out by default and must be uncommented and restarted to enable the web admin interface.
