That is correct, you can still use the flightSQL connector. But this new SQL connector is probably the better one to use going forward as it will have more developer attention and bug fixes in the future.

If I am using the free version of InfluxDB Cloud Serverless, can I use InfluxDB 3.0 for native SQL? I have my cloud account for three years now so it started with Influx 2.0 and with the dashboards feature. Would I need a new account (server) to be able to use the 3.0 features?
