InfluxDB is not a relational database.
{
id = "ABC"
type="seen"
}
and
{
id = "ABC"
type = "received"
}
are different records entirely. The second does not modify the first, nor
do they create a single record. When you run the query as described you get
the first record returned but not the second. That is the proper behavior
for the system as designed.
The query you want to run is really "show me all IDs where type="seen" at
least once but type has never been equal to "received". I don't think
that's possible with InfluxDB. You could run two queries, one to get the
type="seen" and another to get type="received" and then remove the IDs in
the latter from the former.
