# Creating a new operator token for your InfluxDB instance
<a name="timestream-for-influx-getting-started-operator-token"></a>

If you need to get the Operator Token for your new InfluxDB instance, perform the following steps:

1. To change your operator token, we recommend using the Influx CLI. For instructions, please see: [Install and use the Influx CLI](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/v2/tools/influx-cli/).

1. Configure your CLI to use `--username-password` to be able to create the operator:

   ```
   influx config create --config-name CONFIG_NAME1  --host-url "https://yourinstanceid.eu-central-1.timestream-influxdb.amazonaws.com:8086" --org [YOURORG]  --username-password [YOURUSERNAME] --active
   ```

1. Create your new operator token. You will be asked for your password to confirm this step.

   ```
   influx auth create --org [YOURORG] --operator
   ```

**Important**  
Once a new operator token has been created, you will need to update any client that is currently using the old one.
