+# What is InfluxDB 3 Explorer?
+
+InfluxDB 3 Explorer is a standalone web application designed for visualizing, querying, and managing your data stored in InfluxDB 3. Explorer provides an intuitive interface for interacting with your time series data.
+
+%%LOGO%%
+
+# How to use this image
+
+## Requirements
+
+To use InfluxDB 3 Explorer, you need a compatible InfluxDB 3 instance, such as InfluxDB 3 Core or InfluxDB 3 Enterprise. See the official [InfluxDB Docker image](https://hub.docker.com/_/influxdb).
+
+## Pull the image
+
+```bash
+docker pull influxdata/influxdb3-ui:1.0.0
+```
+
+## Start InfluxDB 3 Explorer
+
+Run InfluxDB 3 Explorer using Docker CLI.
+
+### Query mode (default)
+
+To start Explorer in query mode for read-only access:
+
+```bash
+docker run --detach \
+  --name influxdb3-explorer \
+  --publish 8888:80 \
+  influxdata/influxdb3-ui:1.0.0
+```
+
+### Admin mode
+
+To start Explorer in admin mode with full functionality:
+
+```bash
+docker run --detach \
+  --name influxdb3-explorer \
+  --publish 8888:80 \
+  --publish 8889:8888 \
+  influxdata/influxdb3-ui:1.0.0 \
+  --mode=admin
+```
+
+This command:
+
+-	Maps container port `80` to host port `8888` (web UI)
+-	Maps container port `8888` to host port `8889` (API access)
+-	Runs the container in admin mode
+
+If `--mode` is not set, the container defaults to query mode.
+
+Access the Explorer UI at `http://localhost:8888` in your browser.
+
+## Persistent data storage
+
+To preserve Explorer application data across container restarts, mount a local directory:
+
+```bash
+mkdir -m 700 ./db
+```
+
+```bash
+docker run --detach \
+  --name influxdb3-explorer \
+  --publish 8888:80 \
+  --volume $(pwd)/db:/db:rw \
+  influxdata/influxdb3-ui:1.0.0 \
+  --mode=admin
+```
+
+## Pre-configure InfluxDB connections
+
+To pre-configure InfluxDB connection settings, create a `config.json` file and mount it:
+
+```bash
+mkdir -m 755 ./config
+
+{
+  "DEFAULT_INFLUX_SERVER": "http://host.docker.internal:8181",
+  "DEFAULT_INFLUX_DATABASE": "my_database",
+  "DEFAULT_API_TOKEN": "your-admin-token",
+  "DEFAULT_SERVER_NAME": "my_server"
+}
+```
+
+```bash
+docker run --detach \
+  --name influxdb3-explorer \
+  --publish 8888:80 \
+  --volume $(pwd)/config:/app-root/config:ro \
+  --volume $(pwd)/db:/db:rw \
+  influxdata/influxdb3-ui:1.0.0 \
+  --mode=admin
+```
+
+## Enable HTTPS
+
+To enable TLS/SSL, mount valid certificate and key files into the container:
+
+Place your TLS/SSL certificate files in your local `./ssl` directory: Required files:
+
+Certificate: `server.crt` or `fullchain.pem` Private key: `server.key`
+
+```bash
+mkdir -m 755 ./ssl
+
+# Place your server.crt and server.key files in ./ssl directory
+
+docker run --detach \
+  --name influxdb3-explorer \
+  --publish 8888:443 \
+  --volume $(pwd)/ssl:/etc/nginx/ssl:ro \
+  influxdata/influxdb3-ui:1.0.0 \
+  --mode=admin
+```
+
+The nginx web server automatically uses certificate files when they are present in the mounted path.
+
+## Custom SSL certificate paths
+
+You can use custom locations for certificate and key files:
+
+```bash
+docker run --detach \
+  --name influxdb3-explorer \
+  --publish 8888:443 \
+  --volume $(pwd)/ssl:/custom/ssl:ro \
+  --env SSL_CERT_PATH=/custom/ssl/server.crt \
+  --env SSL_KEY_PATH=/custom/ssl/server.key \
+  influxdata/influxdb3-ui:1.0.0 \
+  --mode=admin
+```
+
+## Environment variables
+
+The following environment variables can be used to configure the container:
+
+-	`DATABASE_URL` - Path to SQLite database inside container (default: `/db/sqlite.db`)
+-	`SESSION_SECRET_KEY` - Secret key for session management (recommended for production)
+-	`SSL_CERT_PATH` - Path to SSL certificate file (default: `/etc/nginx/ssl/cert.pem`)
+-	`SSL_KEY_PATH` - Path to SSL private key file (default: `/etc/nginx/ssl/key.pem`)
+
+**Important for production:** Always set `SESSION_SECRET_KEY` in production. When you restart the container, InfluxDB 3 Explorer generates a new key if not explicitly set.
+
+For more information about available options and environment variables, see the [InfluxDB 3 Explorer documentation](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb3/explorer/install/)
