Facing error with postpointsAsync

[hymanallan]

Seeing below error with reporting datapoints to influxdb -
The infuxdbservice is up and running on port 8086 on my server

here's the lines of code
public static async Task ReportDatapointsAsync(List dataPoints)
{
using (var client = new InfluxDBClient(ConnectionString))
{
if (!await client.PostPointsAsync(DatabaseName, dataPoints))
{
Logger.Instance.Log(LogLevel.Warning, "Error uploading data");
}
}
}

@hymanallan the error target machine actively refused it [::1]:8086 usually means the server process (in this case InfluxDB) is not listening on all interfaces. How is the InfluxDB process started, and how is ConnectionString is defined?
