That just gives me an internal server error.

Also try it in milliseconds (so don't multiply by anything). I have not managed to get fully to grips with how this is supposed to work. Nanoseconds worked for me on one system, but I think there is a configuration parameter on the database that allows different resolutions and I don't know exactly how that is supposed to work.

It works!

Thank you so much.

It all worked when I changed to microseconds on the influx batch node.

Oh, is that new I wonder, I had not noticed it before. Presumably you could set it to msec and then feed the `.getTime()` value in directly.
