with a BME280 connected to an ESP32 and with a raspberry pi with MQTT, node-red and influxdb installed I can get the data to make graphs. I know that the information is logged on the raspberry pi itself, but on witch location on the raspberry pi i can find my bucket. I find on the internet /var/lib/influxdb but this is an empty directory. Is it the wrong place on the raspberry pi?

Hi.
I think it is saved in the following directory:
/var/lib/influxdb/engine/data

Hi.
Everything is explained in this guide: https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/v2.6/reference/internals/file-system-layout/?t=Linux#installed-as-a-package (make sure you select Linux and installed as a package).
Before trying to access the influxdb folder run the command
sudo su
