Looks like this is a bug.

Add support for DROP measurement, series, rp, and shard

[nhaugo]

What do we want to do here the syntax does not match with other meta queries.

Is there any workaround available?

[russorat]

@turboslon the reason this isn't supported in chronograf is because in order to drop a measurement, you first need a execute a use db command. the drop measurement query doesn't support the syntax DROP MEASUREMENT "db"."rp"."measurement" syntax from what i can tell based on my CLI and this issue: https://github.com/influxdata/influxdb/issues/8927

for now, there isn't much we can do on the chronograf side to support this in the UI.
